Hi, I recently adopted a 2 year old male russian tortoise. he’s been scratching at the walls since I got him a few weeksn ago so I looked up why and most people said it was because his enclosure was too small. I started out by putting him in a 40 gallon plastic container that i know was a little too small for him so I decided to build him a bigger one out of plywood. The new enclosure is way more spacious (2 feet by 4 feet) and he’s STILL scratching at the corners. Is this just part of his personality/ normal behavior or am I doing something wrong??
