It measures 4x8 for now. We do not use the coil type uvb bulbs because for the potential dangers. There is not yet a uvb set up in this enclosure. They can currently go outside. But we use the long tube type in our other enclosures. ThanksWhat are the measurements? Also, what are you using for UVB? If coil type, you will hear from many people to remove ASAP and get a MVB or long Tube type.
I am thinking this is a nice plan and I am working to build something just like it from my Russian.It measures 4x8 for now. We do not use the coil type uvb bulbs because for the potential dangers.

To answer your questions, We have 2 redfoots living in there. We average 70-80% humidity. To help with longevity of the wood and to help moisture in all the board have been painted with exterior paint. And yes it will hold another enclosures. My concern with putting another enclosure on top would be can your floors hold it.I am thinking this is a nice plan and I am working to build something just like it from my Russian.
I do have 3 more questions:
1. What tortoise lives there?
2. How is the humidity level and how do you control moisture from leaking out?
3. Do you think it is strong enough to have another one stacked on top of it?
I am getting a Cherry Head hatchling next week and I am planning to build them both this summer.
