Hi, I am needing some advice on my tortoise being outside in the UK. I live in the North of England and have a 2 year old Hermanns.
We have a lovely outdoor enclosure full of plants and predator protected.
I’m confused about the temperatures that my tortoise can be outside. I have taken him out over summer when the weather permits and for the last 2 nights he has slept outside as the weather has been so warm.
With the heatwave about to end can I continue to let my tort go outside during the day? I will be bringing him in at night. I’ve read that temps have to be 20 degrees for them to be outside, but he’s enjoying being outside so much I feel it’s a shame to bring him inside full time.
Any advice would be gratefully received.
