: Well, just to follow up on Joe's comments, don't just leave your tortoise alone at home with no feedings/cleanings/lighting...a tort-sitter would be a MUCH better idea...

A tort sitter would be good only if they are experienced and follow directions exactly. Put the lights on a timer, Use about 1" of rabbit pellets on the bottom, Give tully a pile of alfalfa or timothy hay and feed alot before you go. A 20 minute soak the day you leave would be good. If you leave friday night and come back sunday it should be fine. Just make sure the lights cant fall into the hay!
