Egyptian & Tortoise Table
I have said before about these expensive shop built tortoise tables which are often unhygienic. You don't have to spend loads!
Take a £6.99 super size grow bag tray and add four pieces of wood round the edges. Fill with sand and decorate. Oyster shell and cuttle fish optional. Not only did she get a new Hamster house and Christmas Pudding hideaway for Christmas (to come) she also got an upgrade. She has company. I think she is happy.

Nefi looks so beautiful.
Perfect table and as I've said before it's a simple and easy idea for someone to make a table. We can often over-complicate these things. What a lucky lady she is. Who could want more than a Christmas pudding hideaway?!

Thank-you thank-you, she is a sweetie. I hope people don't spend loads at Christmas on things they don't need to buy if there are going to get a Tortoise. Much better to do it on budget and get it spot on for the husbandry, like the right substrate and UV combination lights. (Ok the Hamster house isn't actually necessary but it is Christmas...nearly).

That looks great CB. Really well done and for such modest outlay.
