Revised plan for outdoor enclosure

[4jean]

Yesterday I attempted an outdoor garden area for Nelson, my 2inch Hermanns tortoise. After advice from forum members I have taken out the fencing and replaced it with a stone wall. I have netting that stretches over the top to keep birds out. He will spend some time each day weather permitting in his garden. It is about 5ft by 3.5ft. Open for critique and suggestions!
You can see Nelson in the 2nd pic under a rose bush.
I am encouraging weeds to grow, so far he has rose bushes, viola, chicks-n-hens, dandelion.

Looks nice. The only think I might suggest is burying the water dish a little lower, ground level. Of course unless your tort is bigger then I am thinking.

He is tiny, thanks I will dig it in a bit more.

What is Nelson thinking about it?

He seemed to have a very adventurous day. He grazed around, sat under the rose bushes, spent time in each of his 3 shady caves and soaked in his water. It is really really nice having him spend time outside. This is my first experience owning a tort. Got him in Dec. it's been a long cold winter in NY. Really enjoying making him an outdoor habitat. He didn't even seem to mind having a leaf stuck to his nose (see pic)

Lovely...You've done a very nice job. Great place for the tortoise, and a nice addition to the landscape.
