I have definitely seen this idea before. There was a link in one of the care sheets I had researched and printed before I got my sulcata. I think maybe Melissa Kaplan's care sheet or Sulcata Station care sheet. The guy had great plans and everything. If I find it I will post it on here.

:I had a nutty idea to make a 2 story indoor pen.

:The upper level would either be elevated a couple feet above the bottom but the same length and width on legs.

:Or it could be only about half the size bascially built right on top of one half of the pen making a large cave like area under a large open area.

:Then of course some sort of ramp leading from the bottom to the top.

:Obviously care would be taken to be sure the tort couldn't go over the top, or off the side of the ramp, and fall.

:
:Is this just too nutty?
:I can't seem to find a flaw in the idea (if built properly), but then again I'd figure someone else would have tried it by now.

:Any thoughts?
