HI, I have taken on a RES, I'm pretty sure shes female. It's been a steep learning curve, she's 10 years old, was in a 20 gallon tank, I've bought a 40 gallon tank and have a decent basking platform. There is gravel in the bottom and Im thinking i should add some plants...I'm still researching what to put in a tank.
My main problem is nesting. She is 6-7" longand as far as I know has never had the chance to nest. Am I right in thinking she should have an outside area, secured, to nest? How do I know shes ready to nest? Any info helpfull as I really have no clue and want her to be healthy and happy.
