Outdoor enclosure help

[j_caouette]

I'm going to make a outdoor enclosure for my cherry heads in the next couple of days and wanted to know what's the best way to maintain/make humidity for them outdoors due the the dryness of Southern California. I have just been running a humidifier for 6hrs a day in there indoor enclosure.

How about setting up a mister or sprinkler on a timer? Or possibly a humid hide.

Maybe make a cool bunker with some moss inside. You could set up a tiny sprinkler so it keeps the moss hydrated which gives good humidity or you could spray it yourself. All tortoises love cuddling in moss.

I have been wanting to put a mister on a timer in my compound but I don't know how.

You can buy the misting hoses. You can also buy a hose timer. It attaches to the hose faucet and then the hose to it.

For my redfoots I use sprinklers, and burrows that I built myself. Plus a pond/stream. Also, vegitation will help to maintain a moist environment.
