Do you know what mini heater you use for the outdoor heated hide?

Hey guys, it makes me sad to post this but I think I might have to give up me two lovely torts. It has become very impractical for me and with high school and sports and I think they might be happier somewhere else. I have two Russian tortoises, one male and one female. They have been fed weeds...

What UVB bulb do you use?
