    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    I completely agree. The current setup slightly less than 4.5' by 17" was meant to be temporary. We had him in a tub that was like 3.5' by almost 2 for a long time but it was just a bit too short to keep his light inside(this was "clear" sided tub) I wanted to get his humidity up so we got one...

    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    Hmm. I could create a hinged door... but then again I do want to upgrade her soon so she has more room to run. I don't really know if it's worth getting all customy with that in mind.

    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    I've been considering it. But I wouldn't want to use screen because it'd lower humidity. I was considering placing her up on a table, and finding a way to add a window to her tank that opens easily. I was also thinking about painting the outside. I just all in all want her tank to be more eye...

    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    Yes! But not really planning on buying a new tank to do so. But completely what I was kinda hoping. I was only considering changing her over if the 55 or 40 was actually feasible.

    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    Well the tub is taller than any of the tanks. I'm under the impression the 55 might offer the same or less than half a square foot less of ground cover. But yeah I've seen that about clear enclosures. Then again, many people I've met seem completely perturbed that I keep her in a closed tote...

    Ideas on my sulcata tortoise enclosure

    I live in an apt currently. I have a pool that is still working on growing grass on my porch for tortilla. This way she can be in grass without having to deal with the apt pesticides. She lives in a tub. Originally I had her in a clear sided tub but she can be very skiddish around the dogs and...

    Becoming a torty lover

    I'm mostly just wondering over specifics. Or does 10 degrees make a big difference in the basking temp? Kinda thing. Or does it matter if I soak tortilla every day? Or should I only sometimes.

    Hello from Alaina and Tortilla

    Hello all! I recently got a tortoise so I could have something to bond with after (spark of honesty here) a miscarriage. I love my new baby and am glad I didnt have to carry around my little tortilla for 9 months haha. But he/she is my new love. I've been using this forum to get advice the whole...

    Becoming a torty lover
