Hey yall its scott again. As promised here are the details and pictures of my leopards new bachelor pad. I started by marking out an area that was 20' long by 8my foot wide which gives me a total area of 160 square fee of roaming space for my boy sampson. I dug a trench all the way around the enclosure a foot deep and buried the walls 1 foot even thought leopards dont really dig a whole lot but just encase i deside to build him an even bigger enclosure at a later date and move my russian into this pen. The walls where built out of untreated ruff cut 1'x12'x10 pine and 4'x4'x10'a braces it all came together beautifully and even though the pen is finished and im waiting for the grass to grow and settle alittle more i still have to pour the concrete to make him a custom shallow watering hole complete with waterfall in the corner closest to the handrail on the porch and a house with lights and bedding if the weather turns bad that i can shut him up in. All in all it turned out great! Alot of digging alot of cutting and one split fingernail from a rogue swing of the hammer but i love how it turned out. PenIf anybody has any questions i will be glad to answer them hope this helps somebody trigger sum creative design ideas to git out there and build there tortoise a great enclosure!
