New to the site. I have just purchased 2 baby high white Leopard tortoise, it will be here Tuesday morning. I have purchased a large cement mixing black tub for him. As well as a smaller cement mixing tub to grow my own grazing seeds. I have also purchased some coconut coir bricks from Carolinapetsupply which i plan to mix with some sphagnum moss, and a some play sand and clay soil once I find some. For the UVB I keep reading mixed reviews on different types of UVB bulbs. Any advise towards this subject would be awesome. I have a 100w heat emitter that i plan to use for a constant heat source. I currently live in upstate NY, so its cold more than 6 months out of the year. First tortoise for me and my family. We love reptiles so I thought a beautiful tortoise would make a great addition to my family. I currently have a blood python 1 year old, 2 red galactonotus poison dart frogs, 4 tinctorius green sipaliwini poison dart frogs, a 10 year old cat, and 2 children.
I have made the decision that adding a reptile that me and my family can interact with more than once or twice a week is what we need. I have always loved reptiles. Tortoises have been a new found interest.
