I have tops on all of my enclosures, and padlocks to lock them down, as with the theives, I would think they would cut the lock on the shed with thousands of dollars worth of tools in it before a tortoise cage.

I have what im doing designed, but I had to make something strong, we have Bears, Coyotes, Mountain Lions, Neighbors Dogs, Domestic Wild Dogs, Racoons, Fox, Possum, Skunk, Hawk, Eagle, Owl, and many many other predators.

Thanks! I am going to be making a tortoise/turtle "area" of the yard which is about 2 acres. It is at the woods line so there is massive Oaks, Sweetgums, and Pine around it to shade half the enclosure. The spot I chose to make the area there are spots with full shade all day and full sun all day...

I have had very bad expirenses making pens out of wire im in alabama and it dont last a year

What im thinking of making is using 2x4's for posts, then burrow a 2x10 underground then 2 2x10s above ground, and the pen would be around a 20 ft x 20 ft area then make smaller pens on the inside.

I am making a outdoor enclosure for a 1.1 pair of Home's Hingeback Tortoises (Kinixys homeana) and I have a budget of 100$ MAX for the enclosure. All the ideas I came up with was 200$ for the enclosure! Anyone have any ideas for enclosures?

Thank you!

100% Terrapene ornata ornata (Ornate box turtle)

Thank you, and one of them ate a red wiggler a few minutes ago.

I had two eastern box turtles hatch naturally 6 days ago (9/12/17) ive tryed pill buggs and red wigglers when will they start eating?

Yes they do grow in the easterns native range, we went hiking and picked some.

I have a question I just got in a couple hundred paw paw fruits can I feed them to my boxies? (these are the variety where the tree gets like 30 ft.)

mine dont "swim" they float and paddle lol I have a pond in my eastern box turtle enclosure and whenever I throw in my aquatic turtle food for my red eared sliders the eastern box turtles jump in and eat it with the red ears.

Such a nice pond! Beautiful spotted turtles!
