So I'm working on my new enclosure for my 2 russians, if there is anything wrong with it please tell me .
The substrate will be mainly eco earth, at the other side of it there will be timothy hay, and in the middle I was going to have a few large rocks for them to climb on(I will make sure they can't hurt themselves). I will of course have a water dish and I was thinking of filling a litter box with soil and planting a few good plants for them to munch on in it.(any suggestions on 5 nutritious plants?)
I will admit to not knowing a lot about the tortoises when I got them a few years ago, I used basking lamps with heat bulbs for warmth and UVB strip bulbs. What is the recommended heat source for them because I don't want to be doing the wrong thing for them? Also is there a good online store to buy UVB bulbs? at the pet store they are very expensive and knowing with saltwater atleast, things tend to be cheaper online.
Thanks
