ageeeessssss ago misses yvonnee was curious to see how we keep the coir out of the glass runners...

i find now through experience the best way is too use a brush ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473440329.083054.jpgImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473440339.533809.jpg

it's also a good way to remove the 'soup' from water dish.

oh and thank you ma'am for changing my birthday date :)

What a great idea!
I have some similar brushes, i'll give it a go.
Beak trim? Possibly I'd file off the points, but it looks reasonable to me.

another toy i find helpful, ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473529649.209607.jpg

its a silicon 'blade' used to remove water from cars...

works well on condensation ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473529713.597407.jpgImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473529729.165778.jpg


also useful when 'turning over' or hydrating substrateImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1473529787.570689.jpg

Just give him things he has to bite. Will he eat broccoli? Zucchini? Watermelon rind? Do you have a cuttlebone in his habitat? Do you feed him on a rough surface? I have broken pieces of sidewalk (cement) that I feed some of mine on.


will try the watermelon rind, thank you :)

he is fed from terra cotta and has cuttle.
