Looking for any advice on this new set up...
We have 2 sulcatas and 3 leopards. Eventually all tortoises will perminetly live outside when they are big enough. We live in Southern California so we have access to a secure outdoor enclosure. I normally only keep them outside a few hours a day when the weather is good.
The torts are currently eating dandelion greens, spring mix, collard greens, and kale. I soak them 3-4 times a week for 15 min.
Enclosure is 4’x2’x2’
Substrate: cypres mulch
Lighting: (2) Reptisun 10.0 bulbs, (1) 150w ceramic heat bulb
****** I also have a 100w Zoo Med Powersun bulb that I was using on a different setup and I’m wondering if I need to mount it somewhere in my new setup? (My old setup was a glass tank with an open top)
Currently the humidity is in the 90’s. Is this ok? The temperature is about 80-90 degrees
Anything I should be doing differently please let me know.
