I am moving in less than two weeks. I have a 4-year old redfoot tortoise living in a 6ft x 4ft enclosure, an enclosure that we are going to have to dismantle for the move! I need something to keep my tortoise in for 2-3 days, while we are moving her enclosure, rebuilding it and setting everything up for her, but whenever I look up DIYs for 'temporary enclosures', they are talking about much longer spans of time than 2-3 days, like more in the realm of 3 months or more. Obviously I don't need anything that elaborate.
I'm thinking of just buying a large rubbermaid tote and stabbing holes in the lid for air. I have no idea how to rig a heat lamp into a plastic lid, especially if this is only going to be for a maximum of 3 days. (Probably only 2) Will my tortoise be okay without a heat lamp for that long? She will get daily time outside.
