Posted by: Terryo at Thu May 1 23:18:25 2008 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Terryo ] I live in New York also and have a little Cherry head Redfoot. They need lots of humidity and do not hibernate. In the summer I will put him outside in a little pen, but in the winter I have him in a 75 gal. vivarium. Most people will tell you not to keep him in a glass vivarium, but while he is still small it is fine because he needs lots of humidity, and it is ideal for holding in the humidity. I have it set up with a heat emitter on one end and a long tube UVB 10.0 on the other end. I planted moss and some plants in there to keep in the humidity. He doesn't need to hibernate, and when he gets bigger, you can keep him in a rubbermade storage bin that costs very little. Here are some pictures of him. | ||
