Outdoor enclosure nearly finished for my soon to arrive 3 year old horsefield tortoise. I have a ceramic heat emitter bulb on one side on a thermostat and a dual uvh basking lamp on a timer on the other. I have still to add tortoise friendly plants, stones driftwood and shaded hides etc and obviously food and water dishes. Ive never had a tortoise before do you think she will be ok with my set up

Looks really nice. The step up to the house is too high.
Is it an adult or hatchling? A hatchling age 2 and under should be housed inside with a controlled temp and humidity.
