Hi folks! We have 2 cherryhead Tortoises...1 is about 1.5yrs and the other 2.5 yrs old. We've been looking around at different available housing options besides going custom and came across the Vision cages. The one specifically we are considering is the v632 (6'x3'x18"h). Has anyone had any experience with these for adults as we're looking long term housing. I've seen another thread that mentioned great for young but wondered if anyone out there using it for older cherry tortoises too? My concerns are maintaining heat and humidity at what I've seen as the suggested 80/80 ratio. Currently we're housing them in a 36" wide octagon tank that I've custom a lid for and doing well at maintaining that with an intermittent humidifier and a couple of manual spray/mist downs daily. We also use a couple of 75w heat emitters and a t5uvb. We live in Southern Ontario Canada so general house Humidity would be a concern in some of the open top table suggestions I've seen. Any thoughts/feedback on Vision cages or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I also attached a couple pics of our Bella & Steve ? and their current home. As you can see they like to walkthrough their meals? Thanks folks!
