I am looking to get one in the next few weeks, how big is your enclosure? im looking to do an indoor enclosure because im in a cold climate. does the enclosure really need to be 3ft x 6 ft or can you get away with smaller? I intend on letting them roam the house daily.

The way you picked him up screams “I deal with this tortoise a lot”. It’s so funny how seasoned tortoise owners just kinda man-handle like that, it’s great.

Redfoot tortoises are very active! Mine our two years old and need lots of room to move around, they have their indoor 5 by 3 foot and an outdoor patio area like 10 by 8 feet. I feel like even this isnt enough at times! Really great pets, but you gotta have space!

Hi! I am getting a Hermann tortoise soon and I have a question; if I keep my baby tortoise in a 100 by 45 cm tortoise table, will it be able to live there most of its life (with daily outside walks, and supervised daily roaming around the apartment) ? If no, how long can I keep him in there?

Brendon's forehead is bigger than my future that depends on the sex males stay much smaller than females I have a male dalmatian Herman he is five inches and will get no bigger . he is in a tortoise table that is 4 feet by 2 feet and has a second level that measures 22 inches by 13 inches. so figure out what you want . look into investing in tortoise tables or make your own. invest in something much bigger so he can stay in it a while 100cmby45 is way to small for an adult Herman male or female.

it is expensive, unfortunately, but it was a lot of fun to build and worth it in my opinion. Its a hobby and all hobbies cost money. There's nothing wrong with the storage tub, as long as all their needs are being met. and tortoises live a long time! if youre unhappy with the storage tub you have a lot of time to save up and build something different.

This is incredible. I aspire to create something like this for my Redfoot. Based on the size of this enclosure, would you say it's safe to house two tortoises? Also, are there any other breeds you can house with Redfoots? I realize given their dietary restrictions and habitual differences that answer may vary, but was curious what you thought.

"My fiancee and I adopted a Cherryhead 6 months ago... She was kept in a very small enclosure for 2.5 years and did not get the exercise and nutrition she needed, which is why she has some pyramiding." That is the first thing I mention in the write-up.

I live in Canada so I'm not sure if it is different, and I bought it at Rona but I'm sure pond liner is available at most if not all home improvement stores. I paid $32 dollars for "1 foot" of the liner, which in reality is about 1 ft. x 8ft. which was more than enough to build the little pond. I am updating the water feature in the enclosure over the next month or so, when it is finished I will post a new video and in it I will include what this pond looks like deconstructed.

@elijahsmith2766 11 жыл бұрын
thanks so much. the pond is custom built. At the local Rona store I bought a sheet of rubber pond lining. They sell it by the foot, so I bought 1 foot of it, and it comes off a big roll about 8ft long. Then I built a simple wooden frame and cut up the pond liner into about eight separate pieces, which I drilled into the wood frame and overlapped each other. I "glued" them together using aquarium silicone and then sealed the seams with silicone

Its really easy. Mostly they go when they are soaking in the water, so whenever I notice it I just quickly scoop it out with a cup and do a partial water change. They really don't go often enough that this is a major problem. Otherwise I spot it in another area of the enclosure, usually by the food bowls or the fogger, and I just scoop it out with some kleenex.

Hey thanks for all the comments everyone, I'm in the process of updating several features of the tortoise table (including many new plants, new hides, a new-ish water system, and even a new baby cherryhead), and I will post a new video when it is finished.
