Advice on tortoise table size
Posted: 11/12/2016 by Gemmadare

Hi, we are hopefully going to be adopting a 5 year old Hermann.  I have found a lovely looking Tortoise table for him but as a newbie I just want to check that the table will be big enough?


Table measures 900cm Length x 450cm Width.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

A 5yr old Hermanns should be in hibe now. Is there some reason why it is not ?

You can get away with one that size for a few weeks, weigh it & try to increase it's wt so that you can hibe' it in Feb/March. Keep monthly wt records. Next year it can hibe' for 5mths.

Don't waste much money on a tort table as it will be no use going forward. 

Tom
