It's time to move Louis (my Sulcata) to a new, bigger tort table. I'm looking for ideas of what to build for him. Would love to see photos of what some of you have built. He's a year old - 5 inches, 421 grams.

Hello! This is mr t's indoor enclosure, thought I'd share :) he's a 3 year old hermann's tort. This was taken a few days ago, at the moment I'm testing out a little hide made out of cardboard in place of the biggest pot, which he's loving hiding in haha! Good luck with your enclosure!

Mine are all open top. I realize these are permanent. But I do use this method on some that I have built and sold to people in the past. Its just a 2x4 frame with plywood screwed to the top of the frame then trim the sides out with a 1x6 then place some glass or plexy glass on the inside of the trim silicone it together at the corners and bam.

this is for my 2 russians, but a sulcata would surely fill it out in due time :p just a 5'-4' plywood box...i used L brackets on the inside to hold it together. it sits on 4 milk crates and i applied some water seal to it :D really simply.


here's the whole thing, it's the bottom one.

I have a question about indoor enclosures. let's say i have an enclosure in my living room. should I worry about disturbing my tortoise's sleep if I were to hangout in the living room at night watching TV with the lights on and everything???

This year is the 1st year for my new torti "room" for my RF, it is more than 3 times the size of last years winter pen (they live outside in the warmer months)...I, as always, go a bit overboard when it comes to my torts...these pics were taken prior to filling it up with bedding. I had to work out any kinks in my design plan by allowing them to live in it and try to rearrange their "furniture" so I wasn't wading through bedding to fix ramps and such. It is 12'x8'x2' with baseboard heating and of course FS lighting as well as basking spots...above ground pool, marble staircase, etc...lol!
