    Tortoise Always Hides When He’s Outdoors

    That’s a great idea! Thanks so much! I may use this bin temporarily as the weather here is only in the low 70s right now.

    Basking bulb not hot enough?

    Hello! My husband and I are setting up the enclosure for our future Russian tortoise hatchling, and we are having trouble getting adequate temps in the basking spot. Right now the temps are reading at an even 90 degrees. I read on multiple forum posts though that the temps need to be between 95...

    Hello! My name is Jenna, and I live in Hanford, CA. My husband is going to buy me a Russian tortoise hatchling for my birthday, and we are both extremely excited.
