guess what happened......

I went outside to feed everything and I looked over at the box turtle pen, and saw the female Eastern about climbing the fence. The fence is about 6 ft tall, and she was about 4 feet up. I wanted to snap some pics, but didn't want to leave her hanging. Does anyone have any idea how to make an overhang? I use to have rabbits in there a few years ago, and I had to have chicken wire on the wall of the pen to keep the rabbits in, and the chicken wire is still in there, so I made a temporary overhang out of that by bending it.

You may want to design the pen so she cannot access the wire-if she canot access the wire fence, she cannot climb it. Add something that she cannot scale for the first 16 inches right beside the fence. Good luck! Tess
