He has a hide, petunias (which are edible) a soaking/ drinking dish and a food dish. I also have sod in there so he can munch on and whatever else he wants. He has a cuddlebone for calcium, another shaded area over his food and water dish and chicken wire covering the whole thing so he cant get out and nothing can get in. This was a cheap enclosure, the most expensive thing was the pool from Walmart and it was around $10- $12.

Also, when the tortoise gets bigger, you can just invest in a larger pool. They are very common now for tortoises, they make good, cheap, and fun homes for tortoises. Also, if you wanted you could have a little area where you build a mound of soil or compost and plant some edible foods such as petunia, grasses, succulents, aloe vera, agave, lawn grass, flowering maple, yarrow, plantain, bindweed and much much more. You can buy seeds from online anywhere pretty much, just find a site that sales [plant/weed name] seeds. If you need a list of whats edible heres one: 1.Aloe Vera 2.Bamboo 3.Bedstraw (cleavers) 4.Bindweed 6.Roses (petals and leaves) 7.Bristly Ox Tongue 8.Buddleia 9.Cacti (some not all) 10.Calendula Marigold/Daisy marigold 11.Campanula 12.Carrot tops 13.Cats Ear 14.Clover 15.Cornflour 16.Cut Leaved Nettle 17.Dandelion 18.Evening Primrose 19.Forget Me Not 20.Gazania 21.Globe Thistle 22.Hawks Beard 23.Henbit Nettle 24.Hibiscus 25.Honeysuckle Flowers 26.Hostas 27.Knapweed 28.Lavatera 29.Lavender 30.Lemon Mint 31.Mallow 32.Milk Thistle 33.Mimulas 34.Nasturtium 35.Pansies 36.Plantains (all) 37.Pumpkin Flowers 38.Rape 39.Red Nettle 40.Ribwort Plantain 41.Sedum 42.Shepherds Purse 43.Slender Speedwell 44.Sow Thistle 45.Spotted Nettle 46.Stinging Nettle 47.Sunflower 48.Trefoils (all) 49.Verches 50.Violets 51.White Nettle 52.Wild Cabbage 53.Yarrow 54.
