So I recently built an outdoor enclosure for my three tortoises. And the only problem that occured to me was the heating.
Is there any alternatives to heating? As I live in somewhat cooler climate where the temperature reach around 12 - 13 degrees at night. Does something like hay, paper or blankets keep them warm enough? Or do I actually need something like a heating mat?
Also, anyone who also lives in somewhat cooler climates, how do you with their basking? It's not like the sun will shine everyday in the summer. (Maybe for a few minutes before being covered by clouds again)
