Need some pointers for a bigger enclosure...

[Homebody]

I've noticed that my box turtle has not had enough room in her current terrarium and I have read up on some things about keeping your box turtle in a fenced in area outside. Does anyone recommend this? I have a pretty nice sized fenced area that's about 10ftx10ft and I've put a few log hides in there as well as a basking rock inside. I also added a full-time water source and a food bowl for her. There are some leafy areas where she can burrow as well.

Where do you live? Your climate is an important consideration. In some climates, your box turtle could probably live outside year-round. In others, maybe only during the summer.
