Phase 1.......SO EXCITED

My husband and I (well mostly my husband) started to clear some land to build my tortoise enclosure. We had to cut down a few trees, get the stumps ground and remove a bunch of brush. I got my first lumber load today and we set the 4 corner posts using a transit so that everything is nice and level. The overall measurements will be 21' wide x 30' deep. This will be divided for different species. I will post in phases! I am so excited!Tongue My husband must really love me!

RE: Phase 1.......SO EXCITED

Wow Dee, lots of work but looking good. Keep us posted. I looked at the weather forecast in Ohio and it is set to be in the 30s until about the 16th or so with lots of chances of rain. I was thinking if the weather holds in the 50s I would ship Squirt out to you perhaps about the 21, 22, or 23 of this month. If that would work for you. Or if you want me to hold her longer (due to construction) just let me know.

RE: Phase 1.......SO EXCITED

Whatever works for you is ok with me Robyn. It will be too cold to put her out for a while here yet. She will be inside probably till May sometime. I will probably be able to take them out during the day and bring them in at night until I am sure that the weather is going to hold. They are going to have so much room they won't know what to do with themselves!!
