For torts that small half an inch or so is fine, they are growing.
Slow and steady ( I think Marissa coined that phrase!) is the way you want them to grow.
Diet and set up sounds fine as long as the T- Rex isn't a mainstay in their diet, the cucumber really isn't needed either.
But they do get time outdoors and once a bit older will be able to graze more.
75 is a better temperature for overnight and for the cooler side of the habitat, they do need a cooling down period overnight.
Also the vita shell, I have heard that it can cause problems. And have seen photos of a couple of box turtles who's owner believes that vita shell was responisible for some severe shell deformities.
But I don't have any real info or absolute facts on that, anyone else?
Soaking at their age, every other day is fine with a small dish of water to drink from. A very shallow plastic lid of some sort.
I don't think you have any real problems here.
Terry.
