Can some people post pictures of their outdoor habitats please? Or at least describe how to make a good one. I'm really paranoid so on mine there's going to have to be something covering the top because we have critters like fox and raccoon around here. Do I lock them up at night in a heated shed? Help!!!!

How do I do this?

For the first year I raise all my baby's in the house it's not the big animals hunting for food in AZ it's the ANTS I worry about when a cat or dog gets bit by a ant it gets up and moves . But a tort gets bit it sucks in its head and gets eaten . Some birds will eat the baby's . I just feel better bring in the baby's

Good idea. I would be way too paranoid to keep babies outside.

Yes, I would lock them up at night or bring them into the house enclosure to sleep. Here are some ideas.
