Housing recommendations
As they do not hibernate, Red Foots must be kept heated all year round, and do not tolerate significant temperature drops at night or during the colder months, so need a constant thermostatically controlled heat source.
They have higher humidity requirements compared to most other species, and should be housed in a sealed 8x4ft enclosure when adult, or an insulated and heated shed.
