Hi, I currently have a small Sulcata tortoise, but I am now considering getting a redfoot tortoise.
I understand that as babies it is extremely important that they live in an enclosure with a lot of moisture, so if i get one i plan to start it off inside in an enclosure that allows me to easily control humidity, but i live in Miami so the temperatures here are usually pretty warm year round, therefore, I wanted to know how long would it be before i can safely house my redfoot outdoors where humidity will most likely fluctuate more, and probably be slightly less than indoors?
I still plan to keep a humid, warm shelter for him to hide in when he wishes to do so.
Thanks.
