Andy or Claire lol, that sounds great i had a simila idea, fortunately i have quite a big space and quite a small tort atm that is lol, (shes a leopard), so i can play around with her enclosure quite alot,

im going to place the sun tunnel in the enclosure with plants and grass in it, hopefully it will act as a mini greenhouse and stay warm in their, also it provides shelter from rain etc, so hopefully my tort and yours will love em
