I completely agree with your humidity recommendations. I never understand why some want to house baby desert tortoises at 80% - 90% humidity. One way to maintain high humidity is to convert a standard room humidifier, as they are more reliable than reptile foggers, and attach a plastic hose to direct the humidity/fog into the enclosure. I can set mine to come on every hour for 30 seconds.
A3 Marketing the season they grow is Wet & humid they stay under leaves, burrows, plants, ect. if a baby tortoise isn’t kept it high humidity it would most likely pyramid.
Just got my first leopard tortoise, have bin reading lots of your videos he or she is 5 months. I read most of your suggestions before I got it, I have taken everything in like a sponge. I am now reading about humidity. There is a lot to take in.i am doing e upkeep my best for him. K
I really love your channel❤️. As a new proud owner of a leopard tortoise (mix) I have used your knowledge to setup my tortoise table and diet. Thank you! Also, I love your accent❤️!
Excellent video and channel. I have three yellow foot tortoises in Canada. They are 5 yrs old. Look forward to tips on maintaining humidity. A challenging matter. Thanks.
Thanks for the lovely feedback 🙏 I love Yellowfoots too - although I've yet to find a breed that I don't like!! 😂 Yes, it's definitely a challenge to maintain humidity, but hopefully you'll find some of the tips useful in my next humidity video 😊💚🐢
your video's are the best. i decided that it was best for me to buy a leapard tortoise since your video's have so much info on the species. he's super happy
Hello! I just found your channel and would love to see the rest of the humidity videos too. It is quite rare to find this good and clear information so I really hope you keep on doing these awesome videos!
Thank you so much. please your next video "way to increase&maintain humidity" and Make a video on how to maintain proper temperature depending on the space in the tortoise indoor enclosure. For example, the optimal temperature for the night and day of the hot zone and the proper food, flooring and size of a indoor enclosure according to the tortoise species. From a man who raises tortoises(red foot,yellow foot) in south korea.
Hello! Thanks for your feedback and for the great video suggestions 🙏😊 Of course, I will add your suggestions to my list of videos to make, that will keep me busy! 😂 💚🐢
Personally I wouldn't use hemp bedding as it can be dusty and dry. One alternative is to provide a humid area - eg a half log hide with damp sphagnum moss. This will give a very humid area which will compensate for the lower humidity elsewhere in the enclosure.
How if higher than the required humidity, I read some of the forum they said they push the humidity until 80 percent for sulcata in order to prevent piramid shell issue. I so worry my humidity not high enough and cause my baby sulcata grow up with piramid issue... Currently my sulcata baby humidity is in the range 50 to 70....
I had a issue with my tortoise that is is 1 year old leopard but it's like 31 grams and not active and it's not growing.i feed him good stuff and give calcium I learned to make from cuttle bone bit no results I am scarwd

@@happytortoises may I know the link to the rest of videos from this playlist? I cant find way to increase and maintain humidity. Thanks
living a tropical country which humidity won't fall below 70%.
Hi
Thank u:)
Keep up the good work.
For my herman in the UK today shows45% as uts a bit hot. How can I increase the humidity having a hemp bedding in the table
Personally I wouldn't use hemp bedding as it can be dusty and dry. One alternative is to provide a humid area - eg a half log hide with damp sphagnum moss. This will give a very humid area which will compensate for the lower humidity elsewhere in the enclosure.

Hello! Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the video suggestion, yes I'll do a video on the babies soon 💚🐢🐢🐢
you deserve more subscriber than kamp kenan, lol
Aww! thanks so much! 🙏😊 I've a long way to go! 😂
It's a hard choice it depends on who gives better videos but both of them are equally the same.
In my country(Thailand),average humidity is 70-80%, Is it ok for sulcata and leopard because i don’t know how to decrease humidity 🥲🥲
