Hi, this is the first time I have posted a message. I just got a new cherryhead redfooted tortoise (she is about a year old). I am not sure if she is acting normal, this is my first tortoise. I have a uvb light on her during daylight hours and a 75 watt basking light on 24 hours a day. I live in RI so it is a bit cold here this time of year. But she is not eating too much and she spends almost all day sleeping. She is even burrowing in under the mulch, directly under the basking light. I don't know if this is normal, or if she is too cold. The temp gets to about 90 aroung the light and around 75-80 on the other side of the tank. any suggestions or comments?
Thanks!
