Mine is about 7-8 months old, 57g, I keep him somewhere between 70-85% humidity, and temps between 25 and 35c (Usually the latter on the warm end of the enclosure with the basking spot allowing higher). This is the case whether indoors or outdoors and he seems to be comfortable and healthy in these conditions.
I was wondering, as when he gets a few years old and is less vulnerable, I've been told it's best to put him into a full outdoor enclosure with heated places he can go into so he can get the benefits of natural sunlight all the time, which is fine in a UK summer, but our winters would be far too cold - Usually staying in the single figure temps or lower. We do have a rather large outhouse that can be set up with heaters etc, or hell, he could have something like a rabbit enclosure in an entire room indoors (We have the space) but does anyone have any tips for keeping a Sulcata outdoors in the UK Wintertime? I'd rather have him outdoors because we have a large garden with a lawn that is perfect for him to graze on.
