Cap those corners!!

That's so funny! It made me laugh scrolling down the pics. Although, at that time, I'm sure you were glad you were home watching him and not like that for long. I know I always worry about some of my little guys doing that.

Yeah! I'm in the process of building an outdoor habitat for our 0.0.4 (almost) yearlings...I've been placing them in it during the day (since the weather has neen PERFECT lately) and one my 9-year-old daughter, Sydney, named "Climber" actually scaled a wall of the 8'x4'x1' crater...fortuntely I saw it caught him up and made 'adjustments' and have managed to deter (for now) any further escape attempts. Never underestimate their will to be free...no matter how young (or old).

That is how I lost my Russian Tortoise. He climbed right out of the play yard he was in and he was gone! That was 3 years ago... still so sad about that!

Thanks for the advise I will be building one soon.

Wow, I had no idea. Thank you thank you thank, I now have capped corners. Tammy

Caps are good but when the tort falls down it can get stuck on its back. Better to build without corners, round or oval enclosures are much better.

My goodness! Talented little booger ya got there.

 

[smileycelerystick]

i never would have thought they would be able to climb like that.
