8x4 indoor tortoise enclosure

[TheTortoiseKing]

Hello! I have cleared out the space for a 8x4 enclosure for my Russian. I was wondering if anyone had ideas for a cheep and easy build. Thanks

Oooo exciting! Do any of the ones in here stand out to you? You could post some screenshots and hopefully get some ideas on how to build specific ones for as cheap as possible, check comments too

Enclosure inspiration

Howdy folks! Hope everyone is well! As you all know, I’m a big fan of making threads that cater more towards visual learners like myself, I’ve really been wanting to create a thread full of adult enclosure inspiration for a while now, I’ve managed to find some great references over time! I do...

Thanks so much for the response. I feel that showing pictures like this is the best way to educate people about proper care. I was thinking one of these two would fit my space best do you have the threads for these or any advice on building? Thanks

Nice choices! I’ve always been a huge fan on that top one! I believe I found all of these on the forum but it may take me a while to find the individual threads, you can definitely find all the building materials in store, sometimes it’s good to have a look at building materials on fb marketplace, it’ll lead you to local outlet stores that sell things in bulk cheaper than big chain stores. I feel like that second two story enclosure looks like it could’ve been made out of two bookcases with the shelves removed, then diy supports and a ramp, perhaps you’ll find a ready made base in the form of second hand furniture? Just depends how deep the sides are, though if you utilised the chicken wire like on the first two story enclosure, depth won’t be as much of an issue provided there’s enough for a decent layer of substrate
