Our little rocky is almost a pound, and seems healthy and happy. But we have a new problem with his enclosure. It has been in our bedroom which is by a outside door. With the high humdity it has become a haven for every little critter that sneaks in that door. This last time I changed the substrate, I found roaches tunneling in it. So I thought it would be ok to just put the whole enclosure in the covered patio. Of course last night it got colder then I thought, so I'm realizing this won't work. In such a humid environment I'm thinking anything under 80 degrees could lead to a respiratory infection. So does any one have their tortoise in a outdoor setup at this small size, and wouldn't mind sharing a few pictures. Or anyone have any ideas? We are in south mississippi, and yes there are bugs everywhere. And without spraying his enclosure or just not putting in any dirt, there will be bugs, especially in winter in a such a nice warm and humid spot. Oh and I'm using organic peat moss, looks like dirt.
