I keep forgetting that other people have hatchlings

:::bad ratz::: lol

You may be right, you could be confusing hatchling info with info for older torts. I do know that hatchling box turtle care differs from that of adults but all my turtles are adults, the sulcata I suppose would be considered a subadult since she's only half grown.

I keep forgetting she's only have grown because she's so heavy I can't even pick her up by myself LOL!

Still so far we've kept the turtle heating set up this way for almost 6 years, the sulcata this way for 3 & 1/2 & they never have any problems when they see the vet once a year or so.

Good luck with your red foot.
