    Redfood Enclosure Help

    Any suggestion on attaching hinges to plexiglass? I’ve literally never worked with plexiglass. The other option I guess is to make it a cover you take all the way off? I’m semi handy and have the tools I need

    Redfood Enclosure Help

    I am thinking the same. Once the stay at home is lifted (I’m in Seattle) I have a friend that is a woodworker that can help me protect the wood with something nontoxic if that’s even an option. Careful with the liner you get, some have chemicals in the plastic from what I’ve been reading. The...

    Paint outside of Zoomed Tortoise House

    Oh perfect I actually have one of those on hand from a 2 pack I got for the gecko. I am going to spend this weekend redoing the enclosure and will post a pic. Last question- can I plant tortoise safe plants directly into the tank or should I keep them in containers? I understand they like a lot...

    Perfect I just ordered some stuff on Amazon and I think I will have to brave the store to find a good tote. Thank you both for your help! I got my tortoises in honor of my grandfather who recently passed away and he always had a bunch of tortoises and turtles. I’ve had all kinds of reptiles...

    Paint outside of Zoomed Tortoise House

    Awesome thank you so much! I also reached out to the Pacific Northwest Herpetological Society and they're going to connect me with someone knowledgable about this species to make sure I do it right . Do you happen to know if redfooteds can eat dubia roaches? I was going to ask them that too. I...

    Paint outside of Zoomed Tortoise House

    Thank you Nicole. I've been doing research all afternoon about another setup. I have a much better idea of what I need but I'm stumped as to what to use for the actual cage because I also read that clear glass stresses them out. Any suggestions? I can build something too if I have an idea of...

    Redfood Enclosure Help

    I just got 2 baby redfooted hatchlings and I realized that I have the complete wrong setup for them. I have purchased a mister and more spagnum moss but I'm trying to figure out the best enclosure or how to make one. I bought the ZooMed tortoise house but obviously wood and water won't be a...

    Paint outside of Zoomed Tortoise House

    H Hi Tom, Thank you very much for the advice! What is your recommended setup? Obviously it will be a waste of money on the house but I'd rather have them in the healthiest setup. I'm not sure what you mean by pyramiding? Thank you for your guidance! Best, Brooke

    Also in case anyone is worried, my dog could care less about my reptiles. He cares more about food and mom.

    Paint outside of Zoomed Tortoise House

    Hey! I would like to paint the outside only of my zoomed tortoise house (no paint inside) for my red footed tortoises and I am researching nontoxic paint. I will be painting outside and letting it dry but I have a dog and gecko too so I want to make sure the fumes don’t hurt any of my critters...
