Hello!
Long story short, my tortoise can’t be in her regular enclosure for the next 18 or so hours. To avoid having to have her stay in a smallish cardboard box, I found this. C81F6D07-2445-40EE-A371-7BEB05171D47.jpegIt’s pretty old, but sturdy looking.
I think I remember hearing that one of these tubs (it was with two others) was, a few years ago, used to mix concrete. I power-washed (put my finger over the hose) it… but do you think it’d be too much of a risk? It’s been sitting in a garage for a while. Or is it all right to temporarily let my tortoise stay in it?
Thanks!

I don't think there is any issues temporarily housing a tort in this tub. What type and size tort?
