Just want to thank everyone in advance for having a read through!
So I do my best thinking in point form so my questions will be in bullet point form for easy reading! Otherwise I ramble :/
1. I do not know the age of my tort at all, will this effect any of the things I should be doing? I'm doing daily soaks and kind of treating her like a baby because compared to how big they get she is still very small but should I really be following suggestions for juveniles? I haven't weighed or measured her at all but I can if that helps.
2. When building a more permanent tort enclosure (indoor) should I figure out some way of keeping the area very humid with a cover of some kind or is providing a humid hide in an open enclosure ok? I am located in Alberta, Canada for reference.
3. When I do build the enclosure I would like to have multiple substrates in the area so my tort can choose what it feels like laying on or walking through but I'm not sure how many substrates would be too many, if that makes sense... If I wanted to have three different substrates what would the best three be?
4. Cuddle fish bone... Do I affix it to something or does it just go into the enclosure and my tort will munch on it where it lies?
And pics to show size for more reference though they aren't the best for size ref they are the best I have right now.
Thanks again guys!!
