So as my other post stated, this little leo is my first tortoise. He is roughly 1 month old and I've had him since Wednesday. His first enclosure was a cement tub with rabbit pellets, some hides, and a water dish, I later put in a humid hide but realized that wasn't enough.
So this is what I have now and I have pictures provided below.
I have him set up in a rubbermaid tub purchased from Home Depot. Substrate is coir/cypress mulch and sphagnum moss. Also a water dish and his food dish.. As well as two hides (small plant pots), one on each side.
Am I doing it right?
I read Tom's post but would like to get opinions as well. I don't have a hygrometer, I've ordered one online, though. The temp under the heat lamp usually sits between 90-100 degrees.
*Note: I cut out 2 large holes in the plastic lid so nothing is between the lights and the substrate.
Still no name yet.. I should have a poll or something, haha
Cant decide..
Hemi, Fender, Tread, Bumper, Decal... I dont know!
