Love how you made the enclosures. It is a work of art! Your pancake and elongated look very much at home and happy.

Thanks again!

After having the torts living in their new enclosures for several days now, I find it very interesting that the pancakes are preferring to sleep in the plants on the more humid side, instead of under the rocks. I added that area to try to give them both a dry season and a rainy season in one enclosure. They are using both sides of the enclosure but are always in the more tropical area at night. I added a second thermometer/hygrometer (one on each end) to see the differences and the main overall difference is the tropical area is about 4 degrees cooler (ambient) and 7% higher in humidity. The ambient temp in the entire enclosure has not gone above 86 degrees at any time in the last 2 days. The humidity is settling down now but is still in the 70% range.

Any thoughts on this?

Updated the waterfall to hide the rough edges. Percy had to come see what I was doing in his house. I think he approved :)
