Hello,
My in laws just gave me two baby desert tortoises. They keep theirs in an outdoor area but where I live I’m a little worried that isn’t such a good idea yet due to the amount of predators we have. I had a few questions I was hoping y’all would be kind enough to answer .
1. What is the best bedding for them?
2. How do I tell what type of desert tortoise they are?
3. What is the best things to feed them? (Currently I’ve been giving them mixed greens, strawberries, cucumbers, spinach, apples and carrots) they don’t seem to eat much.
4. What do you think is the best heat lamp?
Thanks everyone! I’m super excited about the little guys and just want to make sure I am
Giving them everything they need.
