Hello,
My name is Dean and I'm a new member. I'm considering getting a leopard tortoise however this would be my first tort and I would really appreciate some help with the amount of space they need. I live in northern Ontario in Canada so the majority of his/her life would be spent indoors. I want to build an L-shape enclosure thats roughly 44sq ft. So how long would an enclosure of that size last? and secondly I understand bigger is better but what size of an enclosure would I have to build to create a comfortable home for my tort when it reaches adulthood? Any info would be helpful, I just want to make sure I can provide a good environment for the tort his/her entire life before I commit to getting one.
Thanks,
Dean
