Hey everyone! It's me again :D Hahah. I still have Irwin, and he is thriving! Yesterday I went to the petstore and saw a Redfoot that was all dried out, his eyes closed, he looked miserable. So I bought him, because I felt so bad for him and I couldn't leave him there in a cage with Sulcata's...

How do you do the CHE bulb with an enclosed chamber? The temps inside my room get about 70-75 at night even though the room doesnt have AC, just because of the temp outside. I have the CHE bulb set to 85

Do you think saran wrap will work? I'm afraid to build a wood lid as I'm worried the CHE will burn the wood and start a fire. I just want what's best for my baby and everything was fine until I got the CHE bulb lol

I see! I was worried when he called me and told me they were ready. I'll be keeping an eye on his weight and everything. And yes I was told he was being soaked everyday and to keep soaking him daily. John gave me a lot of good info about feeding and stuff. :)

Oh thank goodness lol. I spent all my time researching a Red foot and was worried! Yes he was Hatched 07/29. I got him from a breeder in Tampa named John, he doesn't advertise online or anything, I met him through a tortoise group on Facebook - his friend recommended me to him. Is he too young...

Here you go!

Not sure if you need different angles! Let me know :) hes eating for the first time atm

Thanks will do! I'll stop misting it, as that makes the top layer really wet?

Ty both! I have the substrate pretty thick, I think I didnt pour enough water in there. I just poured some more in and I'll monitor the humidity now :)

I went and picked up my hatchling red foot yesterday, but the breeder told me he was a cherry head and now I'm confused. How can I tell the difference between a baby red foot and a baby cherry head? Is there a big difference in their care?

I think the humidity in my tank is falling due to the CHE bulb I have in it. How can I keep the humidity up? I have foil over the top of the tank and the only open spot is where the CHE bulb is. I thought about buying an auto mister like they have for chameleons? Is it okay if the humidity...

I have 0 plant knowledge aside from plants I grow myself. Wondering if these weeds are safe for a baby red foot. Thanks! I think the second picture is just clovers? Lol can't recall.

Super helpful, thanks so much

Definitely will! I'm too excited not to!

Awesome! I'll check them out, thanks so much!

Great I'll be looking into buying some of these then!

A bit! Haha. I asked him about their care and he told me books and reading online is the best advice he can give!

I have a garden that I'd like to utilize for my red foots diet, so that I'm not always purchasing foods from the store. I'm also wanting to ensure I have enough weeds for him or her. I'm wondering which plants/weeds are the easiest to grow in Florida? Also I was looking for dandelion seeds...

Thanks for the warm welcome :)

My breeder advised me to go online and look at care sheets haha.
