Hi - I live in england (Exeter) and want to buy an 8x4 enclosed tortoise enclosure - ideally not super expensive. I can’t find anything online in UK who meets Tom’s standard on his sulcata care sheet - can anyone make any recommendations?

I can't help you with buying one, but if you have anybody to build this, it's designed to be easy to build.

I approached a builder of rabbit hutches and bird aviaries and he made me a custom “cold frame” for Joe to use in the harden. Sadly, he is no longer trading.

It would probably be worth exploring etsy and the internet to find someone similar to get what you want. It won’t come cheap though.

An old book case laid on its side with the shelves knocked out makes a great tortoise table. If you have a youngster that requires high humidity, you will have to be creative in how you cover it.

Try asking local carpenters too i've seen many people get one built by people that either normally make furniture or planters too :)
