I moved the tortoise cams to inside the enclosures. These are screen shots from the video on my cell phone . Really good quality images. Cheap wyze cam from Amazon @$25

 

[Oxalis]

Do you have a separate room or closet for them or are they in some giant tortoise table?

4x8x3 - 2 story . Each Aldabra has a 4x8x3
Baxter the sulcata has a 8x3x2.
I made them out of 4x8x1/2” pvc sheet

Wow that's a serious set up, nice job!

I don't know what I like better- the torts, the enclosure, or the room it's all in! Top of the class!

 

[lazybfarm]

Thanks! The only problem is the Aldabras are growing so fast ( 1 lb per month ), I will be lucky to get another year out of the big enclosures.

 

[lazybfarm]

The big enclosure is moveable. It is on a platform that has big wheels, it is easy for 1 person to move it

All very cool. I think your sulcata wants a hide.

 

[Blackdog1714]

Just let me know when the enclosure yard sale is happening!

 

[lazybfarm]

Yeah ,Tom , he has outgrown his previous hide , I just removed it , I am going to build him a bigger one tomorrow. I am going to build it out of the PVC and just cover it with the substrate so he can walk over the top of it

 

[lazybfarm]

Baxter’s new hide ?

 

[lazybfarm]

He likes it !

Nice! Any plans to add plants right into the substrate?

 

[lazybfarm]

Yes , He has eaten most of them , time for some new plants. I can also grow grass and weeds in there

Sweet! Once your plants grow bigger, I'd love to hear which plants you've grown and had the most success with.

 

[lazybfarm]

I thought a few of the plants would get bigger, but one day they just eat em ?

 

[lazybfarm]

Outside for some sun and weeds
The church lot next door to my shop is loaded with plantain, dandelions and thistles. They love em
