Building a tortoise box

[brenden]

Just wondering if anybody had any info on where to find plans for building your own tortoise box. Some sort of DIY or even just a blue print would be appreciated

Take a look through the enclosure section. I know that Tom has been pretty good at letting us see the steps involved in his building projects. And others have shared too.

this one was posted by Candy about her redfooted tortoise, Dale:

You can try and copy some of our box building threads.. I can't link to the pages from my phone but search around..

The most detailed thread and original inspiration for most of ours is by @Tom
Others include myself, @disizdalife ...And I know there are more..just can't remember who lol

These should give you some ideas.

make sure you scroll to the end. I started with hay substrate but after finding out how dry it was..I lined the floor with vinyl and started using damp coco coir instead. Couldn't be happier!
