Sharky & Ducky update

[sharky43]

We recently upgraded Sharky and Duckys indoor enclosure, it's now 4ftx4ft. They seem very happy! It's been pretty hot where we are lately but it was finally decent enough for them to go outside without worry!

Here's some pics I took shortly after their soak today.

Adorable....hey, is there a lid that goes to the enclosure in your pic? If not, it is only a matter of time before your tort(s) climb out of that enclosure....very low sides if no lid...

Since there are two, you may want to consider getting two of everything. Another hide log, water dish, and another basking spot. And some sight barriers would help make it interesting for them.

As stated above, it won't be long before they find their way out. Can you make the walls higher? Also another hide might help with future aggression. Having to share a hide may cause tension.

There is a top that goes over it I just took it off to take a picture, but It remains on unless we have the torts outside. May not be believable but they love each other right now they do everything together they eat out of the same food bowl even though we have two,if one gets in the water so does the other, and they always lay right by each other while basking and no matter how many hideouts we have they choose to stay on that log together. the only time they wander apart is when they go outside. We do have another enclosure ready for when the day comes that they get aggressive but for now we keep a close eye. We also plan on making a much larger enclosure an adding a few more females.
