Hello!
Very new to this, got my little tort only days ago (almost a week) names Marlo. He seems pretty healthy although I keep being told different things. During the day the enclosure maintains a temp between 30-32 on the hot end and 25-27 down the cool end. The thing that confuses me is at night, do I leave the heat lamp on? I know the UV lamp goes off to mimic night time for him but not 100% on the other lamp for heat, my room is neither cold or hot it's balanced but it has been cold outside.
Marlo is sleeping alot but I know that is normal. I don't want to handle him alot or not at all unless I need too, should I bath him in the morning? Just worried about night times, he's eating fine and as far as I can see he is also drinking.
