    Hey Friends! Welcome
    In today’s video I’m sharing with you how I transformed our garden bed in our greenhouse into a fun turtle town. We recently were given two red footed tortoise from a friend that raises them. I wanted to create a fun turtle oasis for them with a built in garden for them to eat out of. I’m super excited with how this turned out I used my ‪@OnefinityCNC‬ CNC to cut out most of the pieces and finished all of the wood with TotalBoat Lust marine varnish. I also used black diamond pigments and TotalBoat epoxy in this project. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this video in the comments. We still need names for our turtles and I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below help me name our new friends.

      Yeah I added a few sheets of 2x4 plexi around the garden bed, I realize super quick they’re climbers, thanks for the input, they’re safe and secure now.

    Those clear walls need to be higher. They won’t last long, if they couldn’t climb it already. Clear walls also may make them really want to get to the other side
    Other than that this is absolutely stunning!!!

    Hey Lindsay! My kids have started watching your videos and they really enjoyed this one! If you havne't settled on names yet they have some suggestions. My son Drew likes Shelly and Spotty, and my daughter Rose likes Lily and Plantalanta. Thanks for your great videos!

    • @wood_brain
      @wood_brain  Год назад +1

      OK that’s awesome. Love those names I haven’t fully settled although I do call the large one turkey and the little one chicken noodle but I’m always open for switching up their names. Thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it. Give your little ones high-fives for me.

  • @baguettewoman1413
    @baguettewoman1413 2 года назад +1

    looks great! There's a few things off though. First those tortoises need UVB it's essential to their health. They need one of the long tube UVB not the coil or compact ones. Glass blocks UVB so they aren't getting any. Second, tortoises do much better with a heating lamp as opposed to a heating mat. It's more natural and has better IR lengths. You want a Halogen bulb (doesn't have to be marketed towards reptiles) and a reptile lamp with a dimmer.

    • @wood_brain
      @wood_brain  2 года назад

      I really appreciate that thank you so much I’m gonna get a light for them right away and set it up on a timer system so they get the right amount of light that you suggested I really appreciate all the helpful tips

    Redfoots!!! You will love them. You may want to increase the wall height, or lower the soil bed. Maybe even go so far as to add something overhanging the wall at the top, when they get older & bigger. Redfoots are surprising good at climbing. I speak from experience, when my 7 year old Redfoot climbed over the 2 feet walls of his habitat.

    • @wood_brain
      @wood_brain  2 года назад +1

      Yeah I added a few sheets of 2x4 plexi around the garden bed, I realize super quick they’re climbers, thanks for the input, they’re safe and secure now. Once they get older and larger I’ll let them free roam around the greenhouse
