    Not bad. I would maybe recommend a terra cotta water bowl because I have noticed that baby tortoises can sometimes fall over on them but that's a personal preference.

      Fall over on the reptile ramp store brand bowls*

      Thanks. The Tara cotta bowl is a good idea. My little guy did roll over on his bowl. It happened only once. But definitely don’t want it to happen again

    I’m glad you’re securing the tubs most people wouldn’t have

      Thanks. I wanted to be able to move them without having to take it all apart or making a huge mess. So screwing them all together was a simple solution.

    How did you cut the plastic so cleanly?

    • @SomethingJackMakes
      @SomethingJackMakes  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used a table saw to cut it. It is a bit squeaky to do it that way. But a jigsaw would work. Or even a hand saw. Then you could use a file or rotary tool to clean up the edge

    Did use a slab of concrete for turtle to eat on?

      It’s a piece of ceramic floor tile. A small price of concrete would work too

      @@fergusaur_7306 you would need to put the brick down low enough in the substrate so that the tortoise could get on top of it. A brick just on top of the substrate would probably be too tall for a young tortoise. And I would worry about the tortoise flipping over if the brick is too tall

      @@SomethingJackMakes oh ok I’ll be sure to keep that in mind. I was just worried that the brick wouldn’t be a good substance for the tortoise to eat on.

      @@catsforlife2491 for a small species of tortoise this could work for an adult. If you have room bigger is always better. It’s possible to add on another section later if you need. I made it to fit the space I was working with under that stand.
