I've been putting my tortoise outside in a zoomed tortoise house (like the picture) for a couple of hours 2 or 3 days a week. I provide water in a terra cotta saucer, a log and the enclosure has that shaded area. I do it when the UVB is at its highest point of the day. But she usually goes into the shaded part or burrows and I worry if she's getting the proper UVB she needs. I also feed her outside on warm days and try to do it during that same time where the UVB is high, an in sunspots. Is she getting the proper UVB? I know that there is UVB in shade but that area is completely covered up
