Our Heated Outdoor Tortoise Enclosure

No torts are left outside over night for security purposes.

That pic was taken just after completion, but since then all the weeds and the seeds I planted have done what i wanted them to acheive so the torts can feed themselves as well as supplements from me.

I plan to make a secure outdoor pen for my torts this summer, ive got a seed mix to plant for them. They are getting bigger now & it must do them good to be outdoors a few hours a day.

Oh they do love it and it makes you feel great when you see them eating the plants they are supposed to do when you have grown them on yourself.. I bought loads of seeds from ebay and other garden centres, I still have loads for this coming spring too.

Very nice setup. I will try and put some of mine up soon.

What species do you keep?

Just in that particular enclosure just leopards. The other torts in my care have their own areas within the garden. I have 3 hermans, 1 spur thigh and 1 russian.

Wow that outdoor enclosure looks great

Thanks Tony

Now the weather is slowly warming up thinking of making an outdoor enclosure for my torts. Be nice for them to get out of the bedroom, im gonna get a patch of timothy grass going as they like that..i tried a bit its horrid. Nice to look forward to summer.

Yeah that would be a great idea, they love it outside.
I cant wait for summer either.

Very nice. And I just noticed your stats. I like that. And good for you!

(But 28+1+273=302, not 301. I'm just sayin........)
