Hello
I'm new to this forum and have just got myself a lovely baby spur thighed tortoise. Unfortunately I'm having a few issues with lighting and heat for the enclosure. I originally purchased the Arcadia clamp lamp and a 100w Mercury bulb to use so that I didn't need to get a separate heat mat. I've now found that because of the design of my enclosure the clamp lamp is not suitable and I'm trying to find something else that I can use. I would br grateful for any suggestions because at the moment due to the cage my tort is in I have had to secure with cable ties which isn't great and the lamp also needs to be higher. Here is a picture if anyone can help please I would be most grateful.
Thanks
