Any thoughts on this indoor enclosure for my hermann tortoise?? It is used for rabbits but it looks so nice! It is a 36”x20”

That’s too small for one rabbit (and they should never be kept singly in any case) and it’s not suitable for a tortoise either.

Tortoises need deep damp substrate and the humidity and temperatures need to be carefully controlled.

The substrate would fall out of that and the open mesh makes temperature impossible to control.

Your baby needs a closed chamber. Please read the TFO care guides below.

They're written by species experts working hard to correct the outdated information widely available on the internet and from pet stores and, sadly, from some breeders and vets too.
