How big should the cage be for a Russian tortises?

The minimum cage size for a Russian tortoise is 4 feet by 2 feet, with a height of at least 18 inches. However, it is always better to provide your tortoise with as much space as possible. A larger cage will allow your tortoise to move around and explore more freely, and will help to prevent boredom.

In addition to the minimum size, there are a few other things to keep in mind when choosing a cage for your Russian tortoise.

* The cage should have a secure lid that your tortoise cannot escape from.

* The cage should have good ventilation to prevent the air from becoming stagnant.

* The cage should be easy to clean.

If you are not sure what type of cage to choose, you can always ask your veterinarian for recommendations.
