I just wanted to know if there are any affordable subtrates that I can use for my Greek Tort that he can burrow in. I have been using timothy hay but find that he does not seem to like it as much. Cypress Mulch is expensive, and I do not know much about potting soil.
Thanks @Yellow Turtle01 @Tom Because I think I might go with the Greek instead of the Russian. Still, for living alone the Russian is going to have a nice 5'11 x 2'5 area to roam around happily!;)
Well! I do have some updates! The workbench is definitely getting a new wooden plank!
I will most likely be putting up walls around the workbench (14 Inch) thanks to the wonderful post @Yvonne G posted

Product Height (in.) 6 Product Weight (lb.) 2.42 lb
Product Width (in.) 20
Assembled Depth (in.) 27.6 in Assembled Height (in.) 6.5 in
Assembled Width...
Thanks! I think unglazed will be fine. I can get a nice looking square piece of marble for food so that my mom is happy! And with 6-9 inches of soil I think I can get some safe plants in their with him :)
Thank both of you! @johnsonnboswell @wellington
Hello! This is my first post on the forums so I hope I don't mess up!:D
For around 3 months now I have been thinking about getting a Russian Tort! My plan backfired a little when I got a Green Tree Frog for my birthday, 150$ later he is now happily living in a expensive tank with a Brown Anole...
