In this video I built a turtle pond/enclosure in my back yard. I’m going to be keeping turtles in here so stay tuned to see more. Hope you enjoy the video. Remember to like and subscribe. 👍🏻

Lovely pond and great way to keep the turtles healthy and happy. WARMING though, the turtles and predators can climb that wire fence!!!! You are better to replace the fence with smoother plastic or metal sheeting so the turtles can climb out, or even build a solid brick wall with an overhang on top.

I live relatively close to that pet store! My boyfriend and I love going there all the time!! Haha, I knew it looked like you were in FL. Wow, what a small world! Love this video, I’m so jealous of the enclosure you built, I need something like this for my ever growing snapping turtle but not really any space in my backyard.

This pond it's so nice ! I wish I have space to build one for my rambo he is 13 years old. I rescued two baby turtles from the side of the road . I released them back to their habitat when they got healthy and strong.

thought about setting up outdoor lighting, do they need it and how to set it up so the rain wont get to cords or lighting?? any ideas /thoughts on this? or maybe outdoors don't need it? tho in WINTER even if I'm just setting up a outdoor heat matt how do i set up the cords to not get wet by rain?as it would need extension cord etc. ps I'm thinking more for a water turtle

@jaimeperalta3331 4 жыл бұрын

I'm trying to do something similar, should I consider using chicken wire on the top as well to protects from predators like cats or racoons? How is yours doing?

@jakeludlow1800 4 жыл бұрын

Mine are doing fine. If you bad cases of raccoons are cats in your area I would recommend maybe putting a top on. But overall you should be fine without one. Hope this helps.

I live in the UK, I have a Turtle pond, does anyone think it would be a good idea to build a shelter with heat bulbs in? I know they get their heat from the sun but I was thinking it will be ok for my Turtle to.use if it wishes & when it's not such a hot day. Also, if I do build it shall I take it out of the pond & put it in the shelter so it knows where it is if he wants to use it?

@jakeludlow1800 2 жыл бұрын

Setting up an additional enclosure for your turtle is definitely an option you can do especially if it gets really cold there. You can put your turtle in there for a little to get used to and switch back and forth. Just make sure it has the proper setup and environment so it can grow healthy. Hope this helps👍🏻
