Hello,
I just got my first tortoise and I have some questions as far as temps and heat lamps go. I have had snakes and iguanas in the past but this is my first tortoise. I have read some things about heat lamps and temps and got in mixed reviews on them. Is a ceramic heat lamp better then a regular heat lamp? And what’s the best temp? Currently his enclosure is 80deg and Humidity is at 50%. I shut all the lights off at night. I just want the best for my little guy. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
