I don't imagine Florida gets any hotter than Arizona or Central California. Grampa Turtle keeps a whole herd of Russians in Arizona. I have a nice breeding colony of Russians here in Central California (100F degree weather all summer long).

As long as they have a cool place to retreat to during the hottest part of the day they'll be fine. I also water down their yard every morning.

Definitely not hotter than Arizona. We do have a lot more humidity though. They have plenty of shade too and I water their pen down every morning too!

I would love to see pictures of your babies!
