where would you get good enclosures
Poor guy looks like a pancake tortoise.In my opinion, you have to make them. Any that you buy are just too darned small. For very young tortoises I use the Christmas Tree Storage Bin manufactured by Iris. When they're big enough to have outgrown that I move them outside. Then they go out in the day and in at night, and for that, a plain old cardboard box suffices. Right now I have a rescued, 'compromised' sulcata in a Christmas Tree Storage bin. It's really not big enough for him, but I don't have a wintertime outside quarantine yard set up for a tortoise of his size:

great setup. you always do a good job. get a russian!!!!!!!Best bet is build one. I am finishing up a new duplex for my redfoots. Both enclosures are 7x2x2. I covered it with a sheet of plastic for now. I will be remodeling the 3 yearlings enclosure. I will be adding another on top. Really considering a bearded dragon or a baby russian tortoise.
