Hello tortoise friends,
my sulcata and redfoot tortoises are still young and small. There is no problem to carry them.
But I read that torts don`t like to be carried from one place to another.
I live in Germany, and in summer the temps can decrease to 50 F at night. Much to cold for tropical or subtropical tortoises to stay outside.
My idea was to pick them up every evening from their outdoor enclosure / habitat and take them into their indoor enclosure for the night. And the next morning, if the weather is warm, to carry them out again.
Do you think that this transport is bad for my torts ? Or to live in two habitats ?
