Hi Everyone.
BeastMaster7 sent me this message and needs help. However as I don't have stars, I would prefer to post it on the forum so that those with stars can give the correct help.:
Monsoon season has begun and started problems for me! NEED HELP
They started to show signs of cold as I was unable to give them sunlight for almost 2 weeks because of the cloudy weather outside.
please tell me how to make them warm, I also don't have any UVA /UVB light bulb as they are not easily available in India. Till now I was relying on natural sunlight only to give them warm and bask regularly! I don't want to lose them.
How do you care for star tortoise in Winter and Monsoon? (without UVA/UVB bulbs ? )
THANK YOU!
@BeastMaster7 - I would say that you would need to build a night box for them with insulation and a heater. Tom has quite a few threads on how to build them.
Having said this, please wait for someone who has stars to also advise.
I also cannot remember how old your stars are.
