Hi! I'm fairly new to the forum (and am pretty excited I found it). I've had Fred for 5 years and just recently adopted Rumble a few days ago. I house Fred outside the majority of the year, when the weathers nice, and this year I would like to expand and add to it!

Here's a picture of their outdoor enclosure now!

I plan on making that whole side of the yard theirs. I have a few ideas but I would love to see your outdoor enclosure setups!


*Ps I'm planning on changing both of their names (since I now am pretty sure one is male and one is female). I was thinking "Bonnie and Clyde"
Any suggestions?

My suggestion is that you can not keep them together. If you do indeed have a pair, male/female, the male will try to breed her all the time and cause her to become sick and possibly die. If you have two males, they will bullying and fight to again illness or death. Even now they not only need to be quarantined from each other for 6 months but they should not live together now either.
