Hi folks. For the past month, my baby sulcata has lived in the new enclosure, a closed chamber enclosure. I've put all the light bulbs inside the enclosure and completely shut the lid. I've used coco coir and usually sprayed some water on it about 2-3 times a day to keep humidity high. Sometimes it goes up to a low 80% in the daytime and it can go to a low 90% in the night. The most important thing is when I spray some water, leave the bulbs on, and close the lid for 10 minutes or more, then I open the lid again and put my hand in to feel how hot it is. I feel as if I was in a steam room. It's hot, but not too, and very humid. I can't imagine how hot it is for my tortoise but he hasn't acted weird lately. I guess the enclosure has no cool area because I can see the temp is around 91-92f although it's on the other side of the light bulbs. So far when I think it's too hot and too humid, I leave the lid slightly open. So is that what it should be?
