TEMPERATURE
I follow a microclimate way of tortoise husbandry, both indoors and outdoors I hope to hold areas that are both more humid and warmer than other areas giving the tortoise the ability to self regulate.

Each habitat includes:
  • 80 degrees throughout the entire enclosure
  • 90-95 degrees for a basking area
  • A warm humid hide. This is an area with a substrate like sphangum or orchid mouse that will hold water and raise the humidity inside that hide.​ 75-85 degrees in the humid hide.
