Cheech's outdoor enclosure

[JAYGEE]

I finally had time to start building his/her outdoor enclosure. This is my first time building anything and I think i did pretty good!

I still need to add some plants, water dishes, and some other things.

I had the first post done and i accidently discarded it, so I am probably forgetting some more things.

I still need to add another 2-3 bags of soil so I can make it deeper for an underground burrow.

That's one nice enclosure .

Thanks Mike, I am not gonna lie. It came out a hell of a lot nicer than I thought it was!

Wow can't believe that's the first time you made anything - you're a natural! Looks great

 

[JAYGEE]

Thank you Lyn!

Very nice!!

 

[JAYGEE]

Thank you Shannon!


I kind of mis measured a little and the end closest to Cheechs hide/cover area didnt open, so i fixed it to where I can have access to the whole enclosure now.

The seeds are starting to sprout. I ordered another pound of seeds from sulcatafood dot com, so it should fill in more.

What a great area of your yard for a tortoise pen! Makes me miss my yard in Seattle where everything was green and lush. Now I live in the New Mexico desert where everything is brown and dusty...hahaha!

It is! It is so easy to spread and grows so fast!

Cheech has been spending the last 3 weeks outside full time. She seems to enjoy it, even though all the grass turned brown from our heat. She still eats it and I throw some spring mix out there every other day and add some mazuri once a week.
