Hello fellow turtle lovers! How long do you keep the babies in a high humidity environment? At what age, if any do you put them into the normal humidity? Being in AZ there is really no humidity here...
CourtneyAndCarl said:It really depends on the species. I have been told different things by different people, but I don't keep my hermann's hatchling in a particularly humid environment. It gets misted down twice a day, and the warmest part of his habitat (the basking spot/hide) is constantly kept humid.
I think sulcata and leopard hatchlings require more humidity than that but Carl seems to do very well with this humidity.
