Awwwww thank you so much :):) xo

Thank you for your reply :) Under his basking bulb it is exactly 38 degrees C, 24 degrees at the coolest end of his tortoise table. I suppose it is just trial and error with the CHE but I have managed to set it to 22 lowest and 26 highest for during the night which I hope helps tito :)

I just move the CHE to which ever corner tito decides to sleep in it's always one certain corner and another corner at times, I know that isn't ideal but it's only on a clamp so easily moved and he doesn't move from the corner once sleeping, I know this because I check on him during the night...

I've had tito for 3 years and he always sleeps in the one corner, never goes anywhere else to sleep :) I've tried heating the hole area and the end with the bulb always goes super hot before the end without the bulb if you know what I mean, I can easily move the bulb to the corner which he...

How about if I put the lamp to the other end where he normally sleeps? As the lamp struggled to get the far end of the cage any higher than 23 degrees C, so if I moved the bulb to the other end where he always sleeps and control the temperature with the probe so that under the lamp isn't too...

Raising it isn't an option with how I have it set up. Right now my tortoise is sleeping furthest away from the bulb in the corner. Under the bulb is 40 degrees C, and the corner Tito is sleeping in just now is only 22 degrees C. Should I move the bulb to the side he normally sleeps at? And...

Hi guys :) Really struggling with something to do with my CHE bulb. I'm using one for during the night in the bed area of my tortoise table as my tortoise is on antibiotics and I have been advised to up my night time temps to at least 25/26 degrees Celsius. I have a thermostat and a...

I have attached some photos of titos enclosure & a little snap of him enjoying a bath :) Temperature under his lamp is 33 degrees C, cool area of his cage is 20 degrees C. His substrate is coco coir. He has his bed area with CHE bulb for at night, he also has a little cave to hide in (I have...

Thanks for your reply :) My thermostat has arrived so I'm just playing about with it until I get a constant correct temperature. What would you suggest is the best temperature at night for him seeing as he is on antibiotics & eye drops just now. Last night it was reading 26 or so degrees on my...

It has been running for a good couple of hours now & my thermometer is reading 26/27 degrees Celsius. Is that a good temp for during the night or far too hot?? Secondly, with you saying to me to go back to how it was in my first pic is that just until I find out the correct temperature for the...

Hi guys, My thermostat arrived, hallelujah!! however I have a question... AGAIN. I have set the thermostat as shown in the picture, and yes i know it does read below 19 degrees C (which is too low for a sick tortoise) but I also have a small thermometer inside the cage reading the...

I've removed the lid of the bed area and clamped the CHE bulb to the side and closer to the substrate, was thinking of getting something to cover some of the space where the lid would have been and that would hold some heat and stop it escaping?

No idea how I am going to get it under the roof it's really big in size & been told that is the light holder I have to use as the other ones are unreliable, that's the correct holder for it seemingly, it's really large. I have a thermostat coming it's still out in delivery just now. Could I...

I have recently purchased a CHE bulb (100 watt) to warm up my little torts bed area of his tortoise table. I was told to do so to up the temp at night as it can drop very low in my house & also due to the fact tito has an upper respiratory problem & the vet has advised me to up night time temps...
