I finally got a baby Leopard tortoise and I NEED HELP PLEASE!!!! I currently have him/her in a temporary enclosure, I've been snooping around some of y'alls pictures of beautiful creative enclosures, I loved almost all of them but I finally picked one that I like and of course my awesome husband is almost done making it for me but while I was snooping, I realized that at the reptile show where I got him/her I was apparently given not so good advise because the more I read what you guys have to say, the more I think that they must just breed them and quickly sell them bc they don't seem to know much about hatchlings and since I really want to do this right I'm asking you all to please make me a shopping list of what I have to get. This what I have but I wont use it if it's not ok for my still un-named little tort.
*Coil UVB light <--I was told it was just as good as the expensive ones
*Heat lamp
*Heating mat (That sticks to the outside bottom of the enclosure)
*Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer
*Cactus plants, aloe plants and seeds to grow a variety of plants/weeds for tortoises
*Timothy hay
*Reptile bark bedding
*Peat moss
*Basking light
*Regular metal light hoods from home depot
*Mazuri
*Shallow terra-catta bowls for food and water
*The cutest Leopard tortoise in the entire world
*Tons of determination to raise a healthy well behaved tort.
