Hey guys,

I am getting a baby leopard in about 6 weeks and I want to make a closed chambers for it so I can maintain the proper temp and humidity. Can someone please send me blue prints or guide me in the right direction so I can make the proper housing before I get my new baby hatchling.

Thanks!!

Their are guesstimates, that your leopard tortoise will need the condition provided by the microclimate of a closed chamber until they are about 8 inches long.

One factor that helps, that I have found myself, and is portrayed in many styles from the thread already linked in this thread, is to incorporate many live plants.

Live plants serve many purposes that help a closed chamber type microclimate.

Congrats on your soon to be leopard family member. The cheap thing to use and can be added to easily are the large plastic tote storage boxes. I used one for when i first got him and found this forum and got the correct info. when he got bigger i joined two of them together with a tunnel.
