While trying to figure out a good way to corral a 1/4 acre portion of our property for our new resident some one suggested 10" wide boards. At first I figured a 20" long sulcata could climb over a 10" barrier but I am not sure about that now that I have watched her for a bit.
So do they climb well? Would they climb over 10"? My red foot Albert turned out to be a great climber and thats why I am worried about it.
Right now She is penned in my Vegetable garden. I don't use it in the summer and let it get over grown. She really seems to like it. There is a raised planter that she goes under at night to sleep and for shade in the day and she loves most of the weeds in there.
I Used some rabbit wire for pen sides for now. it was the best I could do on short notice. I bent it so that about a foot runs along the ground and the sides are 2 feet high. It is fastened in with 3 foot long grade stakes every 4 feet and is also backed up by a cheap rail fence that was there to keep the horse out.
Can she break this rabbit wire? Is this situation going to work for the next few months. the garden about 80' by 25' so there is a good bit of room.
