I got my hatchlings in I think Oct. and bought a 3'X3" aquarium. Then I turned an entertainment center into a tort table now my nieghbor is going to sell me a 6'X6' chain link dog run. I am very excited because my torts are little so this will give them a safe place to go out side for some sunshine. I put them out in a rabit cage now, but I still worry about them. I do have some questions.
Should I use boards or brick to line the cage?
Should I put it on the outside or inside?
Is the regular backyard dirt okay or should I fill it with something else?
Will a snake eat a small tortoise or do they stick to warm blooded animals?
As you can tell I am nervous about them going outside. Maybe I will build it and plant it and wait until next spring to let them use it.
Any thoughts?
