We have dogs so must have one with a mesh lid.
I have read on a few websites that yacht varnish is a suitable thing to use to protect the wood from water. As our tortoise is a horsfield there isn't much moisture but i would like to make the table last for as long as possible. I just wanted someone to confirm for me that it is safe to use and that it works well.
If not do you have any other recommendations.
Thank you. |
Table looks good, the only thing I would say is, you might need an extra light (just an ordinary bulb or lamp) as it could get a little on the dark side if you are keeping up your tortoise this Winter:0)
Tortoises react to light as much as heat, and they can easily sense darker days.
Boat varnish is the best use on an enclosure:0)
