After weighing whether to let our 2 juvenile DTs roam the entire back yard or keeping them in their current 30 sqft enclosure, we decided instead to find a spot for a second enclosure so each can have his/her own turf. We're toying with the idea of a long skinny one that goes along our concrete wall -- that's where our torts spend all their time when allowed to free roam anyway. It'd be 80% in deep shade from jacaranda and ficus trees, with strong morning to midday sun in one corner. Are there any disadvantages to doing that? I think it would end up being about 3x20, and would be for a rambunctious 6 inch male (we think).
). The 3' is narrow, but the tortoise is only about 6" you say, so it's do able for now. The favor this area naturally, which makes it a good choice that way too. Sounds to me like a great plan!
