All about this product
Product description
Give a ground-level tortoise setup two distinct spaces: a covered retreat at one end and a larger mesh-topped area alongside it. This white and light-gray enclosure has an open bottom, allowing the ground beneath it to become part of the habitat. Fir wood, galvanized steel and translucent polycarbonate panels form the structure.
The outside footprint is 47.2 by 21.7 inches, with a height of 19.7 inches. Inside, the retreat measures 14.8 by 20.1 inches and the activity area measures 30.1 by 20.1 inches. A 7.1-inch-wide, 8.5-inch-high passage connects them. Compare those usable spaces and the passage with your tortoise’s adult size before choosing a setup.
Both top sections open for access, with latches to close them afterward. L-shaped ground hardware is provided for securing the structure during installation. Choose the location and underlying surface deliberately: the enclosure has no floor, and its footprint alone is not a guide to whether a complete habitat meets a particular tortoise’s needs. Assembly is required.
Why we chose it
The separate retreat and activity areas come with useful internal measurements, while the opening top panels make both sections accessible. Translucent side panels provide visibility without turning the whole enclosure into an open wire run.

Common questions
Does it include a floor?
No. The bottom is open, so the surface beneath the enclosure forms the base.
How large are the two interior sections?
The retreat is 14.8 × 20.1 inches; the activity area is 30.1 × 20.1 inches. Both measurements are width by depth.
How do I reach both sections?
The top panels open above the retreat and activity area.
How big is the connecting opening?
The passage is 7.1 inches wide and 8.5 inches high. Check that opening as well as the floor space when planning the habitat.
Does it arrive assembled?
Assembly is required. A manual is included.
