Hello,
I was just recently gifted a redfoot tortoise and would like to receive some help and feed back to improve my tortoises enclosure. He is kept indoors where the temperature is about 80-90 in the day time and 70 or above in the night with a humidity of 70-80. Ive used cypress mulch for the bedding, a fake tree trunk for hiding, aloe vera plants, calcium bone, and a water bowl. For lighting I use a mini 10.0 uvb lightbulb and a 100wat basking bulb. I was also given a red heat lamp for the night but I do not use it. Im unsure of where I should place the lamps and where I should create the basking area. Any feedback would help , thanks!
