Hello,
I recently visited a family member who was gifted two Greeks (I don’t agree with this practice whatsoever). Just by looking I felt like their enclosure was too small; from amateur measuring it seems like they have 11.5” x 17” in a plastic container with a tick paper sheet as bedding and no structure for shade.
I’ve read online that enclosures should be minimum 12 sqft, but frankly have no idea how to go about finding a cage that size or suggesting having a custom one built. They seem more of a novelty gawking gift and are kept outdoors as they wander out of the garden.
I live in the UAE and don’t know any nearby resources to help in regards of getting a better cage. Personally I’d suggest rehoming them but I don’t think they’d want to.
Could anyone suggest applicable cage sizes and easily obtainable materials/cages to get for them? I feel awful for their current state, enough to make an account here to ask for advice.
