In Reply to: Indoor Red-foot Enclosure... posted by dan on April 15, 2001 at 18:10:13:

Depends how big the tortoise is.
5' x 1 and a half feet is fine for a baby/juvenile, although I'd go wider than one and a half feet. Maybe 3-4' wide.

But it won't be nearly big enough for an adult. Infact an adult would have trouble turning round in an enclosure one and a half feet wide!

Red foots get quite big, you might want to go for a smaller species.

Dan here's some web sites with enclosure ideas and a great Red Foot web site is linked at the end of this post.

Hope this helps,
