Zoo med tortoise house with forest floor bedding and some sphagnum moss. (Accidentally bought organic potting MIX instead of soil, so no dirt right now)
Covered side-84°, 88% humidity
Basking spot is a brick paver-97° , 47% humidity
Cool side of wire top enclosure away from basking spot is 86°, 82% humidity.
Just set it up this afternoon, so no night temps yet, but temps here are usually in the 70s at night(central Fl)
The temp today was 90° and they are on our screened porch. I plan on putting them out in the sun most days, and just keeping the ceramic heat bulb on at night in their house. For rainy or dark days, thwy have the reptisun 5.0 uvb bulb.
The 18 week old babies are coming tomorrow and I want to make sure they have the optimum set up before they arrive.
Torzilla and Shelldon thank you for your help!
