Hello guys.....I would like to start off by saying my wife and I are 17 days new at all of this. She came to me about 2 months ago claiming she would like to have a tortoise. So, I did all the research I could do and read up on all the different species etc. and then went to work on building the habitat. The first thing that popped into my dome was....A CASTLE lol, I'm gonna build this lil tort a sturdy castle hehehee. It's all done now except for some minor renovations. Just so it's known, I bought her a female baby giant south african leopard tort, then while caught up in all the excitment I figured I should have one too lol. So I also bought a sulcata.This is what's causing the renovations I spoke of earlier. Anyhow onto the question then....While building this habitat I used different spray paints, glues, and meterials like wood, pvc, and steel, and am now wondering if maybe some of it could be bad for the torts ?.....thought this would be a good place to ask....
