    Thank you I make sure the room is very warm and don't laugh....I use it a lot but if it is after soak I warm it with a blow dryer before I put them in it. Nobody like a cold spa :) They love it and everyone is safe.

    Help! Is this shell rot??

We keep the top layer dry and second layer damp but I just cleaned enclosure and "fluffed" the substrate which brought the damper stuff up. Gamera is my tunnel maker and loves to hide. I thought wrongly that fluffing the lower levels...

    Help! Is this shell rot??

    This is my rescue tortoise Gamera. We finally got his enclosure, temp and humidity correct. I check his shell everyday when drying him off after soak. I never put him back in his enclosure wet. Yesterday noticed patches on him. Is this the beginning of shell rot? Should I use diluted betadine...
