Hi all!
I recently started my enclosure to house (Hopefully) 2 Redfoot "Cherry Head" Tortoises.
It's still in a very earlier stage but I think I can give you an idea of what I want to do...
This part of the enclosure is 4'x6' I did the outside structure using studs to give more strength to it, I plan in the future to add more terrarium/aquarium on top
I'm using a pond liner sheet as where the soil is going I believe it's gonna be a great option to keep the soil moist.
This is the other part of the enclosure. It's 3'x6', they both connect making it a reasonable size enclosure.
( Cat not included)
The next part will be putting the top which will be white melamine (as the rest of the enclosure on the inside). Also I will install the Uvb light, the Ches and a misty King system which Im hoping it will be enough to keep a nice constant moist in the enclosure.
The enclosure will be 3ft high and the soil 8 inches deep.
My questions are: What are the height that the lamps should be and also if any of you had previous experience with the misty king system and what do you think?
And of course any input will be welcome. Thanks for looking.
