Put in alot of back breaking work today...lots of toting 2x12s...but it's coming along...I built raised flower beds on the outsides of the enclosures..so far I've got 5 of them 14 ft long? I love flowers that I can pick and feed to Tank...anyone got suggestions or recommendations for planting? I got lots of day lilies and geraniums...Mexican petunia and hibiscus..20210221_165410.jpg

I
My torts love sweet alyssum
Think there is some sweet asylum in a wildflower mix I bought to plant but it also has some stuff toxic to torts like blackeyed susans. I'm thinking of planting all of that mix at the pasture fence line so I can pick to feed them and pick to make my house bouquets ??? thanks?

Do you have iPhone? Try taking in the PANO mode.
???I'm doing good to work this android. I had to stand on top my jeep to get some pics. I know its sad but I'll see if I can do better next pics I take
You don't need to 'fit it all in', just as much as you can. I hope you stick around and we get to see the end result with tortoises in it...
I'm definitely sticking around ? this is my social media...I dont do Facebook or phone games my time goes to torts and research ? I really enjoyed seeing all the big guys n gals on ur calling all sulcata thread

I just said something because as you suspect I am a Sulcata person and would certainly build big pens like that if I could. But when I tipped my head to see the photos...I got the old lady dizzies...lol

This is great looking space for tortoises! You've done yourself proud!!!
Thank u so much..there's still night boxes to build and more stuff to plant for their appetites...I cant wait for it all to be done and the torts to be happy..I even got little benches in each enclosure so I can sit and watch em?
