we just had a tortastrophie! i have an outdoor pen set up for our large tortoise, my plan was to have him out by day and in a large rubbermaid tote over night. my plan was also to provide an MVB over one side of the tote extending day light house to help keep him up(they are brandnew to me so on the suggestion of others here i was going to keep him up) anyway he happily wandered around his outdoor pen today and this evening i brought him in. since then hes been staying on the heated side trying to climb the sides. i keep fearing he would flip himself, and then sure enough he did! im so scared he will do this again in the middle of the night and i wont find him until its too late. should i place a smaller box over the top of him inside the tote when i go to bed??? i have timothy hay in the tote and he pushed it all over to the cooler side. what should i do???
