Hi everyone
I really two questions
I have a 4 months sulcata tortoise, I wondered if i can only put peat moss as a substrate for it...or I must mix it with coconut coir or sand for best results?
My second question is that what should i do about heating and lightning...should I use a mixed one (mixed bulb for heating and uvb light) but this will be a problem as if it was hot like in the summer and I want to turn off heating source, I have to turn of both uvb and heating or I should separate them ...one heating lamp in basking area and another uvb lamp at another corner or should it be compressed fluorescent lamp above the tortoise table??
Thanks inadvance!
