image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Just finished an outdoor pen. 4x8 with chicken wire tops. Did this while beginning my indoor enclosure sine it will take longer. I have added some large flat flagstone rocks here and there Bob can climb across as well as planting some weeds. The vine on the fence behind it is I believe Virginia creeper which I have read is bad for them so I don't let vine or leaves get in the pen.

FYI. I have only had him a couple weeks. The pyramiding was before I got him.

Nice looking tort. I love the frame you made. Maybe line some plants around the outer sides to provide some shade. Just an idea ~

I have dandelion and some other weeds planted already but no when pic was taken. I plan to put hosts in the back corners to provide cover and he can munch on them also. The inside is dug down so he is a good 8" from the chicken wire top so the vines should be ok. They provide needed shade now.
