RE: new indoor enclosure
I gotta warped sense of humor that not many get...
Jen the new pens look great. I too like the idea of going up, not out. and ED I must admit that was a good one

RE: new indoor enclosure
The aspen I have now came from petsmart so the flakes are bigger, but the torts don't mind it. Petco sell aspen and those are smaller pieces. I thought about calling some of the shavings companies around here and asking them if the have aspen, usually they have really tiny pieces.
Thanks everyone for your comments...

RE: new indoor enclosure
The Aspen I use is produced by Harlan Teklad. It is only sold iin bulk... by the pallet.
If you are near a large metropolatan area you might be able to find it in your area... I can't find it around Atlanta. I love the stuff for snakes, lizards and tortoises.

I am 6' and I still need a stool to get into the top box. I can look over, but not reach in.

RE: new indoor enclosure
When I stand on the stool I can get in and clean and what not. But I am going to buy a little step ladder that way I can slide it underneath and it won't be seen. I love this setup, so much easier and everyone is all together (kinda)
