I have two spotties I rescued from a vernal pool that a developer fill in in order to build new homes. I have had them, since they were about 9 months old, I would guess - very small but no egg sack.

They are about 3 years old now and are starting to spend more time up on the small basking area than the tank. I know this is a natural progression for spotties to want to get out of swimming in water to slogging through bogs and swamps. What can I set up for them?

Any ideas?
