My brother just got a new yellow foot tort a few days ago. So I have 6 torts now. I had bad enclosures for them but now I have changed the enclosure based on people from this forum’s suggestions. Thanks a lot for the help and suggestions Im now using a mixture of coconut coir and chips. I put a few chips so they can climb onto them. They all have their own enclosures because theyre all different species and tend to bully the smaller ones. I also spray the enclosures a few times a day to keep them moist. I was using the exo terra thermometer but people say that theyre not good so i have ordered 6 of the digital thermometer/hygrometer for their enclosures they will be arriving real soon. They also have their own water and feeding dish and i took them out whenever they finished having their meal or the water is way too dirty. Im currently using the exo terra uva and uvb and a solar glo. I always keep the enclosure around 88F / 30C. So far they love their new enclosures, but i often caught them eating the coconut coir. Is that bad for them? im a little bit worried. I also soak them daily for around 15 - 20 mins under the basking light or the real sun if its not too hot. Hope I’m doing better for my baby torts. Oh ya, I also have named all of my torts. They’re Stanley and Shelby (sulcata), Cheryl the cherry head, flash the yellow foot, Clayton the leopard, and Hayden the P.Pardalis
