Iv just read this thread u av written it's brilliant so helpfulA cold frame is a like a small greenhouse used by gardeners to protect plants. The perspex lid lets the light in. In a sunny makes a good basking place for a tort to warm up. Joe slept in his.
Joe's original was one from a garden centre that we knocked a hole in the side of. When it fell apart with age, my father in law built a replacement. Last year we had a third built as the second had fallen apart after years of use too.
You can see numbers two and three in this thread
