Valeurs idéales pour Geochelone elegans, les cibles sur lesquelles baskr évalue tes relevés.

Active le jour
India & Sri Lanka
Climat d'origine. Warm tropical scrub and grassland with a marked monsoon; a dry season and a humid one, and never cold.
Pourquoi les soins sont ainsi. This is why baskr keeps it warm year-round (no hibernation), targets seasonal 40 to 60% humidity and a grazing diet, and flags cold, which can be fatal.
Le relevé, c'est l'entrée. Le produit, c'est repérer le moment où une seule valeur inhabituelle devient une tendance à traiter.
32–35°C (90–95°F)
A cool basking spot slows a warm-climate grazer.
22–26°C, never cold
Cold is dangerous, even fatal, for this species, it must stay warm year-round.
40–60% with a humid hide, more for youngsters
Chronic dryness pyramids the shell; stagnant damp risks infection.
Steady and smooth
Rapid, lumpy growth means over-feeding.
Grass and weed-led, no fruit
Fruit and rich foods cause upset in a grazer.
Regular warm soaks, especially for youngsters
A dry, un-soaked star tortoise dehydrates and risks bladder and kidney stones.
Sans danger
À éviter
A grazing mix of grasses and weeds is ideal, with seasonal humidity rather than constant dryness or damp.
Base
Occasionnel / friandises
À ne jamais donner
Compléments. Calcium (a cuttlebone plus light dusting) and UVB; regular warm soaks aid hydration.
Bon à savoir. A high-fibre grazer. Keep fruit off the menu, and give regular warm soaks to support hydration, especially in youngsters.
Le bon type de matériel, choisis des marques de confiance.
UVB lighting
A high-output 10–12% T5 HO tube (Ferguson zone 3–4) over the basking zone, replaced every 12 months.
Basking heat
A basking lamp to reach 32–35°C over a solid spot, on a thermostat.
Background heat
Gentle, thermostatted background warmth so the cool end never drops cold, this species doesn't tolerate cold.
Thermometer + hygrometer
To hold warmth year-round and track seasonal humidity.
Humid hide + shallow water dish
A humid hide and a shallow dish for regular warm soaks and hydration.
Document storage
Keep CITES and purchase paperwork safe and to hand, baskr's document vault is built for this.
Basé sur tes propres relevés et les valeurs idéales ci-dessus, en langage clair, jamais un diagnostic.
Cool end dropped to 18°C overnight, too cold for an Indian star tortoise, which doesn't tolerate cold. Add gentle background heat, cold can be dangerous.
Humidity has sat very low with no soaking logged. Add a humid hide and regular warm soaks to protect hydration and the growing shell.
Fruit logged repeatedly, a grazer's gut handles it poorly. Return to grasses and weeds.
No. They're a warm-climate species and cold can be fatal. Keep them warm year-round with gentle background heat, and never attempt hibernation.
Yes. The species is CITES Appendix I, so legitimate animals come with documentation proving legal origin. Keep that paperwork safe, baskr's document vault is designed for exactly this.
Grasses, hay and edible weeds, a high-fibre grazing diet with no fruit. Regular warm soaks help keep them hydrated and support healthy growth.
Less so than Mediterranean tortoises. They're more sensitive to cold, humidity swings and dehydration, so they're usually an intermediate-to-advanced choice.
