In Reply to: Temperature for Russian tortoise posted by Lyan on October 14, 2000 at 01:35:04:

If I keep my russians outside durning the summer, the temps drop down to 55 degree on some summer evening, but usually around 60. When I spent this summer checking the highs and lows of their native climates. It seems like a night temp of 60-65F is just fine.

: I have done some research about the appropriate indoor temperature for Russian tortoise. But the books have varied answers. I keep mine at about 72 degree F at night. I wonder if it is warm enough? Your advice is highly appreciated.
