Smile So I woke up this morning...

So I woke up this morning with a real spring in my step, determined to make Flo a large and spacious outdoor Tortoise enclosure. Maybe it was the sunshine that really motivated me aha! Well after about an hours work it is completed, I haven't planted it up yet, so do any of you have suggestions of plants for an outdoor Horsefield's enclosure? Flo absolutely loves the space, she seems to have an obsession with biting rocks, it's good though, as her beak was looking a bit overgrown and she hasn't taken to cuttlefish yet. Enjoy the pictures, more to follow soon..

Looks great already! Plants I'd suggest are hebe, lavender, rosemary and carex.
