Unfortunatly this is a year long enlosure. The summers are rather short this far north and there is rarely more 7 days in a row that would constitute tortoise friendly. They do go outside for grazing and sunlight as much as possible however.

The UV bulb is placed above the food because that is where they spend alot of time Thanks for the suggestion though, and I will add more and longer tubes soon.

What about the temps? Are they okay? I am a little worried I might not have the cool side cool enough, especially for the russian.
