Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Enclosure with lid down
As requested, the two panels in the front have removable plexiglass used to increase heat on cooler days.

Why is the possible sun amount so small?

Good Question
The lid is only closed at night to keep the critters out.

I agree on the night time aspects of safety, but in my opinion, the top should allow more sunlight in and there seems to be too much wood blocking the sun. Just my opinion. The build quality looks very good. What type of tortoises are you keeping in there?

Steve, Very very nice specimens. I have 1.3 Russians, 0.0.2 California Desert Torts, 1.1 Pancakes, 0.0.4 Leopards, 1.1 Indian Stars. How big are your IS's & SL's? So do you keep the top open during the day and close the top at night? The build quality looks very good. Do you know of a source for additional SL's?

Thank you, the Indians are about 2.5" to3", and the Sri Lankans are 4", yes I keep the lid open during the day and locked at night.
Garden state tortoise is an excellent guy to deal with, I just purchased an incredibly yellow one from him, he advertises on fauna.
Upscale is a good source for Sri Lankans, she has been working with them for years, she has 2010, and 2011 specimens available. She advertises on another popular web site.
