Ok thanks again!As far as "rocks" go. A flat rock. Or a section of flat cement, sandstone. slate or terra cotta in an enclosure is excellent for keeping nails worn down naturally.
Every time the tortoise walks over it, the nails get filed down a little.
This is true for any enclosure. For any tortoises of any size.
I use these myself.Ok thanks I will look at those.
You can get slate slabs on Etsy if you can’t find them otherwise.Ok thanks I will look at those.
I should add - I would not use this if mine were a climber and there was a risk of him overturning because of it….You can get slate slabs on Etsy if you can’t find them otherwise.
I got a slate hide with a removable top. It gets really hot if under the light. (not ideal for tortoise basking but makes a nice hide)
Mine is definitely a climber AND a digger. Thanks for the suggestion.I should add - I would not use this if mine were a climber and there was a risk of him overturning because of it….
Yeah we are currently using a compact fluorescent bulb. How would I go about hanging these up?I use these myself.
ARCADIA makes some also. And most people feel that Arcadia are superior.
But ZOOMED are well made and long lasting

Swag chains are great. Because you can adjust the height with them.Yeah we are currently using a compact fluorescent bulb. How would I go about hanging these up?

Any hardware store sells them.
They're cheap
What part of NC? I an near Greensboro. I have a simple outdoor enclosure that my greek tortoises love. They recently had babies, so I will keep them inside for the winter then they will go outside with the other two.We moved to North Carolina where it rains every other day, especially in fall, winter, and spring. Also we like his company.
Hope your other two are not housed together? Tortoises should never be kept in pairs. Stress and male over trying to breed the female is a death sentence.What part of NC? I an near Greensboro.
