http://www.drsfostersmith.com/pic/article.cfm?aid=2719 i think 70-80 is
a little high for russians, 60-70 should be the perfect level of humidity for
them. If u want to keep it at a constant humidity level, buy one of these
humidifier...
Russians does not require a high level of humidity like the Red foots, so spraying the enclosure 2 to 3 times a day should do the trick. Having some kind of lid over the top should help keep in the humidity.
I have a feeling Yermak is a girl, can you flip her over and show us a picture of her tail so we can help you identify her sex for you? She's looking super happy by the way, great job ;)
I live in texas and it gets to the three digits quite often, i keep my russians

the safer route. I suggest slowly adding greens into with the worm, and
slowly taking the worm out, only feed it every other day or...
It looks good, but i dont' see a basking spot? it probably could use a rock or something to bask on, temp should be 90-95. The bigger the better, especially for torts!
Its looking good! And yes you could definitely use some sight barriers such as; plants, rocks, logs, anything! Try growing testudo mixes from tortoise supply, or even spineless prickly pair cactus, which are super easy to grow. You want to keep it humid, so water it twice or once a day isn't a...
