Default Just reserved one of these...

Thought I'd get a new enclosure for my little Herman. I found this is argos, reserved to collect tomorrow but reviews look good!

I brought one of those last year in the sale a bargain at £10. I attached a large wooden bread bin with a felt roof, painted the lot & cut an old fire guard to fit which I attached with cable ties. Inside I added a little fence from the £ shop about a meter long, that made a maze affect & lots of rocks & my little ones absolutely loved it, they couldnt escape & best of all the whold lot cost approx £15.00!!

if you bought 2 you could probably use the same fixings to join them together to make a 2m x 1m one for larger torts. it's 12 inches high too
