I tried searching this, but came up with some vague and differing answers so I figured I'd ask here.
In the future I'll be getting a Greek tortoise and was planning to take it out outside when the weather is nice. However, since I'll be living in an apartment, it won't have an outdoor enclosure. I was thinking about taking it out from 30 min to an hour every day when the weather is nice and possibly longer during the weekends. If this is done during the Summer/Spring/Fall when the weather is nice and warm, I was wondering if it would remove the need for UVB light during the Spring/Summer/Fall seasons and I would only use it during the winter time? Or would I still need a UVB light in addition to taking it outside for those periods of times?
Thanks!
