Here is the beginning of my outdoor torts pens. The area is next to the house and gets a few hours of sun in the morning and then dappled sun throughout the day. The space will be divided into three pens. The hingebacks will be on the far end, Box turtle in the middle and redfoots last. The space is 4.5 ft wide and around 40 ft long! Ordered some grazing mix today, the area usually has a good variety of weeds that grow in.
Here is the progress so far, will update as things move along!
This is the space all raked out and empty
Started placing the wood to keep them from digging out, and added some logs and such. The orange paint trays will be the water dishes
This will be Tippy's summer home, he is too small for me to trust him in a pen, will be adding a lid. The box turtle is trying it out until his pen is complete!
