I buy large bags of cypress mulch a few times a year when I hit the Hamburg reptile show. They are the same size as the garden mulch you find at home improvement stores

Just got a 3rd baby 3 weeks ago

Me too. It all goes to my animals

Thank you!

No hoping the Varoise,Ragusa and Mt Etna breed this year, possibly Nebrodi next year. But who knows what will happen.

Ragusa, Mt. Etna, and Varoise France was my last 5

Predator proof walls and a heavy lid with chicken wire, large water dish and a few places to hide and get out of the sun.. don't forget to soak them regularly. Chris is the man to ask really. He does this for a living I know almost nothing compared to him. Good luck with them!

Wifi yard stake only cost me 35 on amazon. Like knowing that I can turn it in and off even when I am at work. I am paranoid about stuff so I like things warm. I am in NJ so temps fluctuate frequently

I just did it by eye and and built 5 at the same time. I don't have it on a thermostat. I have 250 red heat lamps in there and it's on a Wi-Fi controlled yard stake. So during the spring,summer and early fall when the temps fall i use my phone to turn them on when I am not home.

Thanks. Just added 5 Western Hermanns tortoises to it yesterday.

I have 37 tortoises from Chris. His animals are amazing. I have had animals from different breeders and online tortoise companies and received a lot of animals that got sick very quickly. How is it my 37 from Chris are all perfect and it's a 70/30 gamble from most other breeders...

One thing I like about my pens is i can still move them. When they eat all the weeds i move it over 10 ft and then they always have fresh food. This year my Aldabras will be in a dog pen type set up with a walk in gate with extra panels when needed. They are only 13 and 14 inches and the...

So far no they are protected in heavy guage wire and their lid is latched down tight. I do have a motion light on them so when it kicks on it lights up my bedroom pretty good. I am constantly checking on them and looking for signs of predators. But I do cross my fingers everyday and am always...
