Hi there. I’m new to all this. And I’m really excited to get my Redfoot tort next week. How ever I’m a little nervous at the same time. I want to make sure my torts home is all done and perfect before I pick her up. I was hoping for advice of best things to use. I’ve been told the humidity/rain maker machine is a good thing to invest in as they love high humidity. Does anyone use this and if so do you recommend?
for substrate I’ve chosen to go for the coconut fiber substrate for tropical terrarium.
I’m not sure if to get the 2 in one bulb for light as well as heat. Or just get a basking bulb and a UBV tube for the light. I have got 2/3 different hide outs for her. Aswell as a tort bathing bowl that is non tip. A friend mentioned to be about getting some kind of moss to add in the viv and a possible misting machine aswell as the humidity/rain maker but I’m not totally sure. I live in the UK. So temperatures here ain’t exactly great not even for this time of year so it will be an inside tort. If anyone could give me some advice on anything else I need before I get my girl I’d be highly greatful I want to give her the best start as possible and don’t want anything to go wrong. Thank you in advance.
