Hello,
We are looking to improve our sulcata's enclosure and could use any help we can get.
Spike is 12 years old and we've had her since she was a baby. She currently lives in the backyard and has a shed with a pig blanket, heat lamp, and light. When it gets cold we close up her shed and cover it with a tarp to keep in the heat.
We have a cinder block wall to keep her in, but when she really wants she can easily push at it until she gets leverage to get over it. She has two trees which give her shade throughout the day and sunny areas she can sit in. We are going to extend her enclosure out to give her more room, but would like to have a plan before moving the cinder block wall.
We also have an issue when rats nesting under her house and have had to raise it a little to keep them out. I'm wondering if this is a normal issue.
I've included pictures and any help we can get would be amazing.
This is Spike in her shed
The inside (spring cleaning is coming up).

The cinder block wall.
My dad is in love with her, but mom not so much (too much destruction). Anything we can do to make her life better would be super helpful.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
