Yeah. I didn't buy enough substrate so he only had 3" , the tiles were 6" high so the substrate didn't protect them too much but by the time I could get more substrate which was only the next week, he had already torn out a lot of the caulking and several of the tiles. I am thinking part of the...
I used tiles and caulked and did everything like I was told and within a week he was pulling them loose. I don't want to risk wasting even more money and having to replace this table, and poor Finnegan having to have temporary housing again.
I have figured out what I will be using. I am...
My original table we tried linoleum and that just didn't work out he destroyed it. Possibly because we used the tiles but I still don't want to risk him destroying another table. I frequently use cement mixing pans :) But the walls will be 18" high, if he starts to dig I should easily be able to...
I really don't trust myself to work with fiberglass Resin unfortunately. And I wouldn't even know where to get it.
Temps aren't bad here but its been 90% humidity or above all week.
I have a tortoise table currently in progress. I would like to waterproof it very well and have the finish be low to no maintenance. I will not use liners... I tried that already and it failed. So I am looking for paint on finished for an indoor table that I won't have to recoat regularly, will...
He doesn't pick just one corner lol, he chooses different ones. I think he chose this one tonight because he was enjoying his basking light.
He hasn't really shown any interest in digging. Maybe a very small pit in the corners but not much overall.
He has two hides, a water dish and a food plate :)
He chooses to nap in the corner like that, he just likes to.
Substrate is only 3" ... I was going for 6 but didn't buy enough substrate.
He has everything he needs in his enclosure :) I have a temp gun to check basking temps as well as...
This is my first time building a tortoise table. This one will most likely be temporary, I have plans to go bigger and to build a two level habitat ( One enclosure on top one on the bottom not one habitat with two levels)
This enclosure is roughly 2 1/2 ft x 6ft. I know its not pretty, I am...
No, this isn't for either of the aquatics. They each have a 40 breeder :)
I adopted a 5" adult male russian tortoise. I am working on this bookshelf enclosure ( which I already know I will eventually rebuild) as well as an outdoor daytime enclosure :)
I am working on a tortoise table, I have to replace the backing with plywood, I have to sand the laminate then I was thinking of painting it and waterproofing it?
My goal is to have it be waterproof above all else.
How have people previously waterproofed laminate? And what tape can I use...
Well I did get a pet today at the show. From a well known and reputable breeder.
Its not at all like a tortoise but I had been researching for years off and on and found the perfect one.
I got a baby leopard gecko, I did want to come home with an adult or an older one but this little one...
