    Really? She seems to be able to get in and out perfectly fine? There is only an extremely thin amount of water in it too. Also since I posted those photos I have switched out the substrate closest to the lights with coco choir and added a few new decorations.

    Ok. That is perfectly fine. I was just wandering. I have now built a 5 foot by 2 1/2 foot tortoise table. Thanks for the help! :)

    Hello! I’m new here and I have a 4 year old Russian tortoise named Molly. I am planning to build a big tortoise table soon. If when I build the table do you think it would be ok if I got another female Russian to go in with her?
