I live in Central Florida. After doing some research, I noticed that one of the most commons mistakes is not having enough humidity (80%) in the enclosure for Red-Footed tortoise and other species. Our AC is running around 72-69 F from 6pm-7pm to 6am-7am. After that the house is kept at 76 F.
Is it suitable to keep a red footed or even other specie in an indoor space? Will this habitat work? If not, could you please point me in the right direction?
What other things should I be keeping in mind? I know care varies between species, but in general terms what is suggested?
Would you suggest against having an indoor tortoise pet? Keep in mind that we have around a 7x5 space where we can place the habitat.
We could place the tortoise enclosure outside in a small patio but in the future since it is accessible by anyone and we are planning on putting a screen. We do some lawn space on the side of the house where I keep raised bed gardens.
