I am a customer of big apple pet supply have been for years. But really a redfoot? Maybe for the first few years of its life. but lets face facts anyone who knows the slightest thing about redfoots can point out plenty of reasons this would not work. now Russians or Box turtles egads this would be paradise. But lets be realistic when it comes to Red foots unless you can connect four of these together side by side as well as long ways ;)
@4quall Agreed, this could work for Red Foot Tortoises up until they are about 5 to 6 inches but then it would be time to move them into something else. This is perfect for small species tortoises including Hermanns, Star, Russians, Greek and Box Turtles.
@1992lance I would say about 7.5 inches max since the hide hole is 8 inches wide. You could probably cut it larger if you needed but 7 inches is the largest unless you combine two of these units together which it is made to do.
@BigApplePetSupply how do u clean it cause i have a 50 gallon storage container and its plastic so its easy to wash it out when i need to, but what about wood?
I'm getting a russian tortoise soon. But I do not know where to find lamp holders? I'm from the uk but dont know where to find these things which holds the bulbs? :3
Links from shops or shops would be greatful!, Thanks :(((
honestly, i would never put my tortoise in one of these. is the wood treated? hopefully there's no chemicals in it. And at least one side needs to be plexiglass, or some other clear material. Reptiles in general, and tortoises especially, do not do well in small, fully-enclosed terrariums.
@sensinarie We respectfully disagree and the wood is not treated with chemicals - we are talking about a Zoo Med product. We also would be curious as to what reference or study you might be citing that concludes that tortoises need something out of clear material. We have many customers that have had great success in these enclosures although most do take them out on a daily basis to interact with them.
@PythonMania364 Thank you for commenting on the video but please note our prices in general are 30% or more off average pet store costs. We also have over 600 Exclusive items you cannot get anywhere else.
Lastly, you indicated shipping might be like $200 on this item, average cost to ship to a location on the east coast is $12 to $20 so we are unsure how you achieved a $200 freight estimate.
It's a great product but expensive

I love the fact that you can connect two of those. I wish I could buy some, but plastic storage bins are a lot more accessible.
TheBoaConstrictor95 3 months ago
@TheBoaConstrictor95 Storage bins are nothing like these though and we ship these all over the country.
BigApplePetSupply 3 months ago
@BigApplePetSupply But I feel like I'm more flexible to try different things with storage bins. They are much taller. Are these even water-proof?
Well unfortunately, I don't live in America. I live in Saudi Arabia, so personally, bins are waaay more accessible.

@BigApplePetSupply Can it keep a full grown tortoise for life if it only grows up to 8 inches? What about if it grows up to 10 inches?

@BigApplePetSupply I was asking if that enclosure could hold an 8 inch Russian tortoise as a life long habitat.

Would this be big enough for 2 russian tortoises?

Plan on getting this one for mine. I love the fact you can get a second one and combine with ease, just in case he needs a bit more room.

@sensinarie Tortoises will stress out with clear sides, they will constantly try to walk through them.
