Hello everybody!
New owner to a pair of Red-Foot hatchlings from Kamp Kenan.
They are in a tortoise house with coco, cypress mulch and reptabark substrate. They have a couple of sphag moisture hideouts. Lighting is a tube UVB and a CHE for heat. In their enclosed portion of the house, they have a heating pad mounted on the lid. Temps stay in the 80's. I spray in the mornings and have a fogger timed a few times a day.
My only concern is that these buggers love to sleep and hide, they'll nibble at food after a nice soaking outside, but not much. I've tried soaked Mazuri pellets, worms and crickets, their salads that I mix... Different combos and I can't seem to get them to eat much.
I am moving from SoCal to San Antonio, TX shortly. Cannot wait for them to grow and have their outdoor enclosure. We'll have a sunroom, so I plan on locating them in there for now.
