Second story enclosure

[Tyanna]

Im building an enclosure this weekend and am wondering about the second story I'm making. How do i make the ramp up there easier for him to climb? Suggestions?

I made a ramp with thin wood and put popsicle sticks on there to give them a better grip

Thank you! I was trying to think of how to give it more grip and that's perfect!

you could put a load of saw cuts in it like this

That's a good idea too! I like both of those. I guess I just couldn't think of anything at all! Love it!

I'm making a ramp with little wooden ribs and an edge so he doesn't fall off

I used pond liner. The rubber is good for grip. For my other enclosure, I hammered thin strips of wood about 2-3 inches apart to make "stairs"
You can see it to the left.

Great question!!! I'm looking and pondering on how and what to do myself about a 2 story tortoise table & I'm getting frustrated! My husband works a ton of hours & I'm not handy at all!! So I'm thinking of just one HUGE L shaped type table for them. I have a spare bedroom for my tortoises. They are just growing so big! My tortoise table would collapse if I build a double. I'm obsessed with looking at enclosures on the forum & google images.

I used felt pens on my ramp stuck down with glue gun. Tink flies up and down them no problem


In this picture it's not finished, but you get the idea

I used grip tape on my ramps, it's easy and makes climbing up and down for my torts easy.
