About this deal

In addition to toys and activities, tortoises need a rich environment that will encourage physical activity and inspire mental health and agility. Some of these things include: Without a safe spot to hide and sleep, tortoises will easily develop stress that will affect their activity and appetite. The Exo Terra Tortoise Cave provides shelter as well as offering a cooler and more humid microclimate in your terrarium. This hide will also be equally suitable for other larger vivarium species. Tortoises are well adapted to push objects around with their head or feet. They have even been known to pile up items to organise them. Giving your tortoise the chance to create or modify its environment is very good for mental health and acuity.

Tortoises may not observe out-of-place items immediately but they are curious and will eventually discover a bright or unique object that they have not seen before. You can try this with a brightly coloured pebble just make sure it’s too big for them to try and eat.

But it can be more than that. Plants that flower can give your tortoise stimulation with the olfactory sense. A variety of strong and pleasing scents can spark your tortoise’s curiosity over the smell. Just before your tortoise eats.

So, in general, your tortoise will not be happy or remotely entertained by having another tortoise around. Tortoises do not play well with others. The Exo Terra Tortoise Cave was especially designed to provide tortoises with an enlarged hiding space. A proper hiding space is an often-underestimated feature of a natural terrarium. Without a safe spot to hide and sleep tortoises will easily develop stress that will affect their activity and appetite. With its realistic pebble design and large hiding volume, the Exo Terra Tortoise Cave mimics the natural hiding places for tortoises.

Awesome cave experience. The signs lead you too a long hilly thin trail but all you need to do is drive as far as your car will go (really need an AWD vehicle, we had a jeep) then follow the large wide path to where you will see other signs to the cave. The large wide path is just an extension of the dirt road leading that leads to a really cool beach too. It was a fairly short walk to get to the cave overlook, nothing too strenuous. Keep going down and you will see bridge on the right to the tortoise sanctuary or keep left to continue to the cave. If you have the space in the enclosure or terrarium (maybe on the other side from the pond you just made) try making an area of soft dirt for your tortoise to practice this instinctive behaviour. A pushing toy can be anything large enough that the tortoise can push along the floor of the enclosure. This is another great toy for your tortoise that can be put together simply and cheaply from repurposed items. Just be sure your tortoise cannot swallow it. Also, tortoises have a powerful beak, so it needs to be material that they cannot bite through.

Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. With its realistic pebble design and large hiding volume the ExoTerra Tortoise Cave mimics the natural hiding places of tortoises. All of these are workable solutions. In fact, allowing your tortoise to manipulate its environment is always great for enrichment. You can take the same approach as the other materials listed above. If you do this, be sure and monitor the dirt for a couple of things. You simply want it to be moist so that your tortoise can form it into a cave. You do not want it to be: A proper hiding area is important for tortoises, this prevents stress and creates a humid hiding area.

Drove to the cave down a rough dirt road instead of hiking the entire heritage trail. The entrance used to be through a gate on the left at the first fork, but it has been closed for awhile (there was a sign saying temporarily closed) so you have to take the right at the first fork then bear left at the 2nd fork to find parking (don't go to the stables) which are on the right. The road is rough but we just went slow. Without a safe spot to hide and sleep tortoises will easily develop stress that will affect their activity and appetite. With its realistic pebble design and large hiding volume the Exo Terra Tortoise Cave mimics the natural hiding places of tortoises. Tortoises and turtles are different. In general, tortoises do not like to be in the water all the time. They do like to cool off and get a little wet from time to time, so it is a good idea to have a decent size water feature for them to get into once in a while. The Exo-Terra Tortoise Cave was specially designed to provide tortoises with an enlarged hiding space. A tortoise is a great pet, just like a dog or cat. And like any pet owner, you want your tortoise to be active and happy. Though you would not think it, there are many different pet tortoise toys and activities that can contribute to your tortoise’s mental and physical well-being. Having a healthy and curious tortoise can lead to having your exotic pet for a long time (which, incidentally, can be quite a while, given its average lifespan).

If you keep your tortoise in a terrarium or a tortoise table, then you can make the water feature as elaborate as you want. Depending on the size of your terrarium and how elaborate you want to be, you can: Reptiles Shirt, Amphibians Shirt, Herpetology Shirt, Herpetology Gift, Herpetologist Shirt, Herpetologist Gift, Snake Owner Gift, Lizard Tee The Exo Terra Tortoise Cave was especially designed to provide tortoises with an enlarged hiding space.

We saw it here on trip advisor and figured out how to get there with Google maps.
