I will be hitting the road tomorrow and I need to bring my 5 week old tortoise because nobody can look after him for me. What kind of setup should I use?
Leave him home. Traveling a little baby like that will be very stressful.
Soak him the day you leave and the day you get back. (And every other day when you are home…)
His lights should be on a timer. His night heat should be on a thermostat.
Remove the water dish and leave a spineless opuntia pad in there for food. He should be fine.
