Anyone got any recommendations for tortoise tables? Need one for my Hermann's tortoise since he grew too big for my old one and always climbs out.
Anything I should keep in mind when buying a table? Depth (so he can dig down)? Height (so he doesn't climb out)? Size? He's 13cm now I believe. Is a large table important?
why would you buy one, they're easy to make.

Actually the plan is to buy one and attach it to the one I already have by sawing down one of the walls. But I still need I for on how big it should be, depth (so the tortoise and burrow) and so on.

1.5x their height is usually alright, but T. hermanni isn't known for burrowing much in captivity so you should be able to get away with less.
provide it with some leaf litter it can crawl under, that's about as much burrowing as they do.

That brings up another question - is decoration important? I currently only have some wood pieces.

Well yeah also it's only 0.5x his height in depth at the moment. If I had it any higher he would just jump out of the table.

some rocks for it to climb on should be good.

if he doesn't burrow it shouldn't be a problem.
a pile of leaves should be good either way, it's not like you can really climb them.

Dude don't take advice from a gardener. Goggle.
