Hi all,
Haven't been on in a while, but my fiance and I have been working hard on getting a new tortoise table ready for our two, large hermann torts! They quickly outgrew their old one, and after speaking to the forum members, it was agreed that it was too small. So, our new one takes up the majority of our dining room! It really is as big as we can go.
Our tortoises currently measure 20cm , from top to tip of their shells. Their new home measures 165cm by 125cm, and is complete with a mini upstairs. Our one tortoise, Mildred, who is definitely the most active of the two, has made good use of this already, climbing up and down the ramp!
We also chose some specially selected enclosure plants, which we know are suitable for eating, as well as providing good hiding spots, this combined with some veg, and some weeds, should give them a more varied diet
Just about to pick up two, much larger heat lamps, and the job will be done!
Any thoughts, or any more suggestions for our indoor enclosure?
