I was very lucky and found a Pet store quality brand new setup on Craigslist. A furniture store had won it at an auction and didnt know what they had.
It has two glass enclosed areas 2 ft by 4.5 feet. I am wanting to keep Baby leopards in there for the first 3 months. I have 5 in one right now with eggs set to hatch soon.
My question is about lighting and substrate. I have great temperatures and humidity going.
Is there a UVB light that I can put in the ceiling of each enclosure that will work for them that can be 2 ft away from the tortoise. I and my wife would prefer to not have another light hung in the middle of it.
I am hanging a CHE bulb on a thermotstat for each enclosure right now.
Extra Credit question:
Also I am using a mix right now of coco coir and orchid moss as a substrate. Is there anything else you'd suggest for Leopards that might be cleaner.
You can see the quality of the enclosure here: http://cascopet.com/us/reptiles/entry-level/ It is all glass and welded steel. Matched my houses interior trim also which makes my wife very happy.
