Is this sufficient? Or should I add more space?

Thanks for viewing ;)

More space is always better . If you got it I would say go for it .

The more room the better, especially with groups of tortoises. I would also add some visual barriers, like old logs or big rocks, or a few bushes in the middle of the enclosure. Does it get much sun? Where are you?

First of all I'm jealous. Secondly more room is always a plus if you can provide it. If not then Toms suggestions of visual Barriers of some sort will help. Perhaps trimming up half of the palms will help a little with the available space.


Or is that fern trees? I can't tell. But trimming up every other one would increase the grass space.

If they're not fighting or eating the grass down to the nubs, it's probably big enough.

Welcome to the Forum!!

May we know where you are? The radiata isn't very common in the U.S., where most of us are based...just curious.

They will get morning sun from the front and evening sun from the back. But they seem to prefer shades better.

I'm from South East Asia. :)
