Hello Fellow Turtle Lovers!

We have 3 three-toed box turtles and recently we came here to this forum for ideas on building an outdoor turtle enclosure. The information was so helpful that we wanted to pay it forward and share information and pictures of our new outdoor turtle enclosure, built by my husband. Our turtles are loving it! Let me know if you have any questions and I can pass them along to my husband for a response, as I only picked out the plants :p

Congrats. you can put way more plants in if you want to. They love a heavily planted enclosure.

My suggestion would be to make their water hole a little bigger. I built mine out of concrete and mortar and they really enjoy swimming in it or just floating weightless in the water. It's not very big, but deep enough for them to fully submerge or float weightlessly.
