Yes, I bit the bullet and as long as it is nice, mine stay out now too. Two burried themselves in a flowerpot and I am congratulating myself because I have resisted the temptation to dig them up and put them in their hide

Having torts outside is 110% natural
Very good for them. Mine love the sun!

Same here. Only had my 1-year-olds for a few weeks and have left them outside for the past few nights. They also like to bury into a flowerpot on its side half filled with soil.

I think its warm enough for them to be out at night. As long as your outdoor enclosure has a protective lid (in case of predators, such as foxes) and maybe for your piece of mind, a lock (that is your decision). Definitely a lid though. xx

Lid is essential, yes. Even if you don't have a dog, you never know when there'll be a visitor in your area. You had Lily out lately, Rach?

I dont have an outdoor enclosure for Lily yet Courtney, so no. But he is out as much as possible - whenever its sunny and I am home, he is out...causing trouble & mischief!!
