Usually I dont like food names for animals but omg is she a Peaches! Peaches is so adorable and it fits her perfectly!
Just found your channel. This enclosure is awsome! It seems like you own my favourit animals, now I have to look all of your videos. Greetings from Germany :)
I love how it turned out and I love al the fake plants, they bring a lot of nice colours in the enclosure! I'm sure Peaches will be super happy in there😍
Hii! I have a redfoot tortoise too. I have done a lot of research and it’s been recommended to get a UVB tube light (which you already have) and a ceramic heat emitter for the heat. This is recommended because it doesn’t have any light which is good for redfoot tortoises since their eyes are sensitive to light. Although, I’m still fairly new at keeping so, idk aha just a suggestion
This looks awsome! I love how she nodded when you said are you excited i have a box turtle and would love to get him a zen hab
I don’t see enough tortoises in them! They are so great for them!
Love your Peaches! You did a great job on your enclosure. Wishing you the best from Indiana
Thank you so much!!!! 💕💕💕💕
Just seted up too a tortoise encloser ! 😊💚❤
Almost to 40K. Good Luck.🍀
Thank you!!! I can’t believe it! 😍
Would it not have been easy to restack the habitats where peaches is on bottom? Just a thought for the brand how easy is moving after in place?
so happy I found this channel! great set up!
I'm turning my wife into an animal reptile chick now also😂😂 loving ur videos
What wattage of uvb do you use in both of those bulbs and how much space needs to be between the uvb and the tortoise? Beautiful build 😊
Your backgrounds get better and better. I got the same fake air plants from Michael’s for one of my backgrounds I’ll be doing, they have the cutest artificial plants! Must have for enclosures haha
Thank you so much!!! And I totally agree. It’s so much fun picking them out though. I was so shocked though that all the plants on the background ended up costing 70 bucks 😅 worth it though
PERFECTION 😍! And I mean 100%!! 🐢
Thank you!!!! 💕💕💕💕
I’m sure you have mentioned this before but have you considered also making backgrounds out of the side pieces? Its really pretty but I think doing the sides would make it even better!
Great idea with this structural wall, I need to try this. Thanks for the inspiration!
Soooo cute I'm getting 11 my name is some of them
Greetings from the UK
Too beautiful 😍 ❤❤❤
Older tortoises will need a larger enclosure more like 5 foot by 8 or 10 feet. Just be aware in 5-10 years
Peaches is adorable!
Hi 🙋♀️ I have a question about the Zen habitats. I’m getting the 3 tiered stack-up but I’m not sure what options to choose, what size enclosure to get, if I can stack different size enclosures, is it ok to stack them 3 high? What animal should I put in what spot? I have an adult male Bearded Dragon, a 4.5 month old Blue-eyed female Ball Python and then a
I love your videos they are a lot of help! I do have a few questions. I have a 4 month old baby red foot and keeps getting eye infections. She just finished her first round of antibiotics. I was wondering how you kept the humidity up in your old take? Also what are you putting down for bedding?? Thank you!
Hey where do you get those information sheet things that are on the side of your enclosures that say the scientific name and some info.
Hi! Are you able to have temperature gradients in this enclosure? I actually bought this exact one after I saw one of your videos for my baby red foot and when I posted in a forum asking for advice on the uvb strip light I basically got attacked for using a vivarium and they said it’s bad for ventilation and fungus and will make my tortoise sick. It really made no sense because this has the same if not better ventilation than a table with a plastic cover which they seem to all recommend. Just wondering how this is working out for you with humidity and temperature gradients ! Thanks for any input 😊 love your videos
Awesome Tricia. How often do you change the substrate?
Hi! I don’t know if you’ll see this a year later but I am setting up a pvc enclosure for my red foot. I was wondering how the background held up? My girl likes to scratch the sides and ruined her temporary wooden tortoise table. Thanks you!
Wow very nice !
OMG good work sweetie, i love to see your videos❤️😍😘😁😉
Nice, I have a question and a comment. Does Zen habitats mean bioactive? and you should do a video on African fat tailed gecko enclosure reviews
Wow Tricia this is such an awesome video I love it.😃👍
Thank you so much!!!! 💕💕💕
@@reptiliangarden You're very welcome Tricia. Much love.
What do you do for a living?
I work for zen habitats and work right here with my CZcams channel 💕
Amazing setup, Tricia!
Thank you!!!! 💕 💕 💕
Pro tip : watch movies at flixzone. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies recently.
@Daxton Keaton yup, I've been using Flixzone for since november myself :)
@Daxton Keaton Yea, I have been using flixzone for since december myself =)
How many reptiles do you have in your collection
Hi Tricia! Could you talk a little bit about what kind of uvb bulb you are using. I recently got my tortoise and am so confused on what lighting to use. Thanks in advance. Love love your channel and great advice. Keep it up!
My question about the zen habitat enclosures is what's the difference between the 4x2x2 meridian pvc vs. The original 4x2x2 pvc?? Is it worth the price increase??
Where did u get that background in ur terrain?
Are you using a thermostat with the heat bulb and if so where would the probe be?
Looks awesome.
Btw, are you going to do more different reptile species enclosure reviews?
Where did you get your lights?
How do you keep up the humidity?
Awesome video
Beautiful setup, beautiful tortoise! I'm working on a new enclosure build for my tortoise and I'm having soo much trouble settling on a heat lamp fixture 😭 can I ask what heat lamp you're using for Peaches?
Thank you! I am using a 75 watt heat bulb with a smaller dome fixture
What heat light are you using that you said also has UVB??? Great enclosure as always!!!
Thank you so much!!! I am using a t5 5.0 uvb and then I switched out the heat bulb that have uvb in it, it was way too hot for the setup. She now has a regular heat bulb that is 75 watts.
@@reptiliangarden Oh awesome! Thank you!
I've been wanting to add some UVB to my crested gecko's enclosure, but man that world is complicated and I'm having a hard time choosing a light!! 😂😂
Great video, peaches is adorable💖 I just need some help with knowing which uvb I should be using for my red foot, hes 11 years old and I don't know if I should get a 10.0 or 5.0 as well as if it should be the 22" one or if longer is better? Idk, if you could help that'd be awesome!✨
They are a tropical species so I would recommend a 5.0.
@@reptiliangarden okay great thank you for the response! I was planning on having the the fixture be about 18" from my tortoise but if I use a 5.0 will it need to be lower?
I love it!! Looks amazing. Should the largest enclosure be on the bottom tho? It looks like the larger cages are on top, will the bottom be able to support the weight?
So.... I probably love you peace n vibes from Tennessee
Wow this looks sick
Thank you!!!!
No problem
Where did you get your enclosure? I am in need. Help
Here’s the link to the enclosure from zen habitats: www.zenhabitats.com/products/4x2x2-pvc-reptile-enclosures
That’s awesome😁
Looks bad ass! 🎸🐢🐢❤️
Hi! I know this was a while ago, but what substrate do you use? I am struggling to keep the humidity right and I think it's my substrate.
I use joshsfrogs biobedding mixed with reptibark
@@reptiliangarden Thank you!
I love all your videos they are so helpful! How did you get the uvb to safety hang inside the enclosure I am having some troubles with my own!
I’m getting a chameleon soon!!! Any tips on decorating?
Lots of foliage things to climb on so your chameleon and thermoregulate and feel safe! Check out my video reviewing chameleon enclosures for some tips
@@reptiliangarden thank you!!! the enclosure look so good! when is the next time your reviewing enclosures i have done upgrades and i want your critiques.
My first time seeing your channel. Good job. :) Have you considered adding more red foots to live with her? They are not really solitary creatures. Apart from that, maybe don´t have her enclosure so high up? They are ground dwelling species with not many cliffs or such in their native habitat, so that height might cause her a bit of stress. But ye, looks nice. :))
I just got a redfoot tortoise hatchling yesterday! I love how you have the information cards on the enclosure. Did you make them??
I love this enclosure! I have a yearling redfoot tortoise named phoenix that is now in a 7 by 3 foot naturalistic enclosure! How old is peaches? :)
That is amazing!!! So spacious. She will be 1 in January
@@reptiliangarden My little guy will be 2 in april! 😁
What substrate do you use?
Does Zen habitats mean bioactive? And you should do a video on African fat tailed enclosure reviews.
Love it!
Thank you!!!! 😘😘😘
I want a box turtle or small tortoise but I don’t know how to purswade my parents
Do as much research as possible and let them know that you will take full responsibility for it. The more information you can give them, the better!
@@reptiliangarden thank u, I will
What kind of turtle, is she?
hate youtube... it hid all your videos for the longest time i thought you deleted them all again
Setup starts at 4:00
That will be so hard to clean properly, less is more.
I’d get it a friend
Maybe in the future when I move. I have heard they do tend to enjoy social interaction.
I love you 😍🤩👍
It's a hollow log lol
