I'm a first time tortoise owner n we have only had him a week (he's a russain tortoise ) the bulb for heating his basking area broke thismorning , I took the old bulb to the reptile shop but was informed it was very old and not made anymore I bought a 60w bulb . Now the basking area is reading 100 , I think this is too hot ? Not sure how to get it down I can't move the bulb any further away . (Iv attached a pic) the thermometer is in the background is this the right place ? The other end of his enclosure is cooler .
Would really appreciate some help , thank u
