I just wanted to share my cage to everyone for ideas or anything. It is just 4 gardening panels (20$ for 2), bird net, eight cinder blocks, and tie straps. The cost of all this was about 70 when you include the plants and such. It is about 9 square feet but in about a month I will make it 18 square feet by adding another 2 panels. The plants in the cage are ... blueberry tree,pansy,hasta, hibiscus (but it died of cold weather). This cage works really Well in the Florida weather.

Not bad I like it . The plus side it would be easily enlarged for the growth of your tortoise.
