Ha! I love the tardigrade propaganda poster!
Sounds like we should steer back in the direction of wood fencing instead of chain link. Four feet high would probably keep most things out. I suppose we could add electric fence to the top later if we felt the need for additional protection.
I'm still stuck on the night box. I like the ASL Solutions doghouse that @SinLA posted. Do you have any experience with the Palace Central Heater that goes with it? That combo could be the simplest solution for us. The largest house they have would probably last a long time before our guy outgrew it. I'm puzzled over the high set door though. We could bury it a bit to level the bottom of the door with ground level on the outside, but how would a tortoise get up to the door on the inside to get out? Do you fill the inside with something? What am I missing here?
