My first ever Torty-tat (bare bones)

[Terrapin]

Here you will see the skeleton of the tortoise table I am building. This enclosure is for the adult male Russian that I will be bringing home once his habitat is established.

Its 4x6 with 2ft walls.

Next phase will be substrate, lighting, temperature regulation and hide set up!

(this is the first thing I've ever built with my own two little hands. Well, with some help from another set of bigger hands. )

What is under the blue tarp?

Plywood and beneath the plywood about quarter in foam padding to help insulate somewhat from the floor.
