I am the mom of 2 wonderful almost 2 year old torts. They are leopards. One is a regular leopard with alot of white and ivory marking and the other is an ivory snow leopard. The photo I added was from a about a year ago, he is much bigger now.
I would like to make them a new indoor enclosure and make them more comfortable as they have outgrown their terrerium. (currently a 40 gallon) Any suggestions of where I could find a tort terrerium that would still fit in a house.
We are alos building an outside enclosure for them, but that is a work in progress.
Thanks for your time

Hi and welcome to the forum...you could buy a used book case take out the shelves and lay it on it's back. Then you line it with a shower curtain liner and fill it with substrate...add your tortoises and there you go! Instant tort table...anyhow that's my suggestion...:)

Hi and welcome to the forum, you have a very stunning little shelled baby there. I agree with Maggie, the used book case or a table built (if you are handy with saws nails or screws and such) is the best way to go. Check out the enclosure section for more ideas.

Welcome to the forum, I myself have my torts in a rabbit cage thats 150cm long, it works just fine as its on a stand and i can wheel it in or out. Although if you can make a tabletop it works out cheaper.
Good luck
