So, my husband and I have been making these enclosures here and there. Thanks to a great forum member, my daughter got a 3 toed boxie today. We needed another fast, temp setup until Saturday, so off we went to get supplies. I used this opportunity to actually take pictures this time.
We have an appliance store locally, and they ALWAYS have boxes to get rid of:
Cut in half longways:
A little duct tape to tighten things up:
All that took about 5 minutes. Then we started adding stuff. So here's the final result of 20 minutes worth of work:
And the gorgeous young man that will be inhabiting this temp castle. Days only. We have no creepy critters really, but he won't get nights until we can build one with a screened sleeper.
We've fostered tortoises as large as 20 pounds with these. Of course, we used fridge boxes and a lot more duct tape. Even made hides of duct tape.
