Hi all, was wondering if some of you could post pics of your tortoises indoor homes. My 2 are about 18months old and are doing great. I just feel I'm missing out on making their home the best I can for them. They are in an open table top and space isn't really an issue so any ideas & pictures you have please share! Thankyou

Are they being housed together, and is it an open air enclosure? If so, they definitely need to be separated, and they need closed chambers. Tortoises should never be housed in pairs. They are solitary animals, and cannot make friends. In fact, it is very stressful on both.

Looking at your profile picture, it appears that they are definitely pyramiding. It is near impossible to keep humidity in an opened top enclosure, and you really need a closed chamber.
