I have reoccurring nightmares of a poorly pyramided tortoise. In the last week I’ve noticed his shell is seeming less smooth than it was previously. He had been receiving less soaks since I returned to work but now my anxiety will ensure he gets more soaks regardless of my schedule. He is on antibiotics that he receives every 3 days for an RI.
Here are photos of his current enclosure (today is cleaning and new substrate day!) and he is having a new 4x6 being built.
I have two heat lamps shown (his basking spot is usually over 90, I had the doors open a little while taking photos so temps went down)
I don’t use the stuck on thermometers, I use the digital ones in the enclosure.
I’m using an arcadia T5 light in a sunblaster T5 reflector hood that’s screwed inside the enclosure lid as I have tested them for accuracy.
He eats a mixture of kale, dandelion, chicory, with soaked pellets(can’t get mazuri where I live, anyone know where I can find it?), red peppers and flower topppers. I plan to start a garden for him in the summer to offer a wider variety of weeds.
Any suggestions and advice are appreciated!
