I am interested in getting a Tortoise from what I have read a Redfoot would be my best option for an outside Tortoise in Southeast Texas. During the summer the humidity is almost always 90% or more and it stays in the 90s most of the time, I would just like to know when I would need to bring him inside. I have read multiple care sheets, but I would like to know other peoples experience.
So my main concerns are..
Is a Redfoot the best for my area? if not please point me towards another species
At what temperature should I bring him inside? high/low
Also am I missing any major concerns with the weather/humidity?
P.S. if anybody in the area has a breeding pair I would be interested in getting one from a captive breeder I would rather know for sure that they are captive breed
