Hello!
I'm looking to get a cold frame for my outdoor enclosure for once it starts getting chilly out (I live in Florida...so it really doesn't get that chilly. But a few months from now we will start getting weather in the 50s and 60s, and I don't want my box turtles to be uncomfortable. And Beans gets really stressed out when I try to put her inside over night, so I'd like to avoid that. It takes her over a week to recover and not hate me after a night inside).
I'm having trouble finding a small one. It seems like any time I try to find something for outdoor enclosures, everything good is from the UK (has anyone else noticed that? They have great pre-made stuff for tortoises over there).
Anyway, I'm a terrible craftsman so if I could find something pre-made or 'some assembly required' that's ideal. I'm not good at going to the hardware store, buying my supplies, and just creating something. Unfortunately.
I really like this one:
http://www.greenfingers.com/superstore/product.asp?dept_id=191&pf_id=LS6553D
But they don't ship to the US.
Does anyone know of anything comparable that I can get here? Something smaaaalllll like this one...not 4 feet wide, etc. And something that won't break my bank. I just finished spending another $150 for an expansion project for my pen, as I'm getting a new rescue this weekend.
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks!
