Moved to Miami, needing a new enclosure for my Hermann's

[reatrocity]

Hello all! I'm happy to say I moved to tropical weather, and that Morgan no longer necessarily needs to be inside.

That being said, where I currently live there is no real "outdoor" area, we have a patio, but I'm not able to say, put cement blocks and dirt there and call it a space for my tortoise for fear it would damage the tile. I would need some kind of outdoor tortoise table, or something similar.

Any ideas anyone have in mind? Thanks!

I just posted this link for a new member as an example of an indoor habitat, but it would work just as well on the patio:

One thing I'm worried about is wood rot, especially because it's so humid here. I'm worried to put chemicals on wood for fear it will harm my tortoise. Any products someone would recommend? I did figure a bookshelf would be perfect, but I just wanted to make sure it would at least last a decent while before me needing to upgrade him.

Thanks Yvonne though for helping out though with helping me narrow down possible enclosures.

It looks like Candy's husband has lined her enclosure with plastic. That should keep the humidity at bay a bit longer.
