BTW, your enclosure looks epic! I might steal some of those ideas
Thx for all your concernTom said:32-35 would be a better soaking temperature. Its okay to mist or soak when he's laying around sleeping. Some of them take some time to get used to the soaks. Its okay. Its good for them. Make sure the water is not too deep, and that it stays the correct temp too. Its best to use a tall sided tub that they can't see through.
Which page did you see tom's enclosure? I can't find anytortoise007 said:BTW, your enclosure looks epic! I might steal some of those ideas

Never mind I'm stupid hahaTom said:justino4444 said:Your little experiment
Not really sure what you mean. This thread is three and a half years old, and it has worked out very well. Much has been learned.
Yvonne G said:And to call it a "little experiment" is quite demeaning. Tom has gone to great lengths to ensure a quality experiment...using many tortoises, not just one or two, and sharing his results with us for over 3 years. Not many of us can afford (time wise and money wise) to take on such an experiment with so many tortoises and it was and is great that he has done it and shared so openly with us.

No offense taken at all, I was just trying to understand where you were coming from.
