Post Possible Redfoot tortoise housing

Hello.......

I am looking for some advice. At the moment I have 2 young redfoots one at 2 years and another at 6 months.

I have them both in a 4ft Viv as they are still small. But I was looking to rehome more redfoots. My idea was to build an enclosure in my hut. It’s all insulated and double glazed. It will be about 15ft by 20ft so will be rather large. I am looking for some advice to do with lighting and heating.

My plan was to make to basking corners and make a pool in another one( build up soil around it so they can get in easily). Put 4 tubes around the sides to get the uv. And top it all off with bark. Could plant some edible plants for them to eat and half bury concrete tubes for them to hide in. Hopefully they will have eggs and I will use Viv’s outside the enclosure for a nursery as such.

Also if anyone know the best mister that can be used with a timer?

Looking for some advice or ideas of what to use or if there is any other kinds of lighting that would be better.

Thanks
