I know there's probably a difference of opinion on what I've done for our torts. But keep in mind I work from home, so they have lots of supervision. This includes webcams. We live in the south, so it's just a little cold for them. I wanted to make sure their plants make it so I got a greenhouse. This thing is much bigger than I thought! I keep a saucer of water in it & it is accessible for them at the bottom, if they slip out & go exploring. Then they seemed to want to come outside a little but it was 50. So I thought about a short greenhouse attached to their warm house. I got one that zips at the bottom, so it's not completely closed. Where the greenhouse attaches, there is a gap on each side so it gets air circulation. I also got a coop heating pad & hung it on the wall of their house. The plants are starting to take off. They are loving this idea. They came out for a soak, lunch, exercise, a nap, then went back in their warm house. Yep they are pampered. One of their soaking spots is complete with a reptile water heater.
