I know it’s a long shot but does anyone have any suitable size pvc enclosures for sale/cheap in the central FL region? My bubs is due to upgrade but I wanted to peruse here first before I go all out on a brand new one for quite a few hundreds of dollars

Thank you, getting a compliment like that from you made our week thank you!!! He truly is our spectacular baby 🐢

I’m not sure if it’s harder to discern with young, small torts as compared to larger, older torts, but I’d like to know where (s)he’s from to the best of our ability if at all possible :) I wanna know what our future looks like :) (I’ll get plastron pics in the am, can’t seem to find one) thx...

Thank you, for a Redfoot hatchling, it has no top, and the front is acrylic. I planned on getting a wood board to the dimensions with some hinges and a handle to put on top and seal the entire inside. This is on sale dirt cheap open box for a crack in the acrylic I could easily fix. Thank you...

Is it feasible to get one of these for a hatchling? It is quite large for his little size, 4x3.5x3.5. And if so, how to properly seal it? I know the basics but I wanted to know if I should just go another way. This would fit my current indoor needs. But I know other options are out there I just...

Thank you I’ll definitely do that! Is your substrate just bark or is there anything else? I have a layer of coco fiber covered by plenty of orchid bark to keep the fiber underneath and keep humid. Your Mojo looks beautiful btw amazing 🤩

You’re amazing thank you! Saves me much research and money on different packets of seeds. Buying the one big bag will be so nice

Thanks man! Slightly off topic, but on tortoisesupply there’s a “broadleaf mix”. I know Redfoots can be browsers and not really grazers, but it doesn’t list the specific seeds. I suppose it’s all good from Tyler considering his care and reputation but I didn’t know if I should just get...

Just wanted to show off my most adorable son/daughter: Ruby-Dave! The name really is Ruby, but it was Dave to begin with and has been a hard transition 😅 so he has quite the long government name. I’ll have to print it in a CVS receipt to fit it! Much more childproofing has been done since these...

You are a godsend my friend! I think I have my answer now. No pvc for me. Ooh that rhymes 🧐🤔

I have that for when I’m not at home but I love to be able to physically see him while doing my own thing around the house for my anxiety lol. I appreciate the quick answer!

Thanks I’ll look into that! Would a greenhouse be a bad idea if sealed properly? They’re much larger than a tote I’d think and they’re not too expensive compared to big box enclosure companies that I’d have to upgrade later

I cannot think of any disadvantages to the closed chamber, it’s perfect… but how can I visually enjoy him and his habitat I lovingly created. I know tortoises aren’t pick-up-and-handle-any-time pets, I treat him like the coolest most spoiled garden gnome ever. My conditions for him are perfect...
