Hi, my 4 year old Hermann's tortoise has been getting restless lately and has been pacing her enclosure a lot. I've been doing some research and apparently try this means she is getting bored? She has a slate for basking, a water bowl, a food bowl, a log hide and a lightweight plastic ball in her enclosure, what else would you recommend?

Plenty of rocks and wood mine loves to climb. I change my torts enclosure around after a week or 2 so she doesn't get bored. Hope this helps ?

Thanks, that enclosure looks super cool! I've added in a kind of dirt hill today because she loves to climb, I will see how that goes down and have a look for some rocks ?

Check Craigslist for free stuff that you could repurpose like a bookshelf- lay it down and attach plywood to the back and staple in a shower curtain to line it!

Thank you the enclosure is an old book shelf I upcycled as all the ones I was looking at on the net was way to expensive for what they where.
