Indoor Russian enclosures

[lynnedit]

Here is where my RT's will be living over winter.
One is a tort table a friend made for me, pretty fancy, maybe too fancy. 5'x2.5'x18" high.
My male lives in here (quarantined) and I must say, he goes up and down the ramp all day long. (clamp lamp near MVB is temporary)





2 females live in a Waterland medium land tub that I scored off of Craigslist for $75. You should have seen me 'fly' to the Safeway parking lot to pick that up. It's nice, but I wish they could have something even bigger. 70"x32"x14", plus a small shelf to climb on. And yes, they live in my daughter's room on her bed frame. She is in France for the year, so...

Seriously, huh?
I told him he should make reptile houses and sell them on ebay. He fit me in during a slack time, but now he is off remodeling human houses again, sigh...I think they bring in more money...
They have so many more tort table options in the UK, and people who build them. Not fair.

Very nice! I love that ramp. I think I will have to make some alterations on Wilbur's home.

Thanks. The black strips on the ramp are anti skid strips, (sort of like sandpaper with stick on backing), that you can buy by the foot or as a roll at places like ACE hardware. When I got him his nails (and beak) were really long and it was too hard to trim his back leg nails, but this has really helped.
