Hello all, this is my first post here. I am very interested in getting a Russian tortoise and I want to get everything perfect before I bring him home. I will be using a 6' x 3' x 1' bookcase that I will lay down to create the cage (I am looking for a 6' x 4' but have not had much luck yet). I am planning on using a combination of organic potting soil (no additives) and coco coir. I will have all of the correct lights, hides and dishes. My biggest question is that I would like to plant the table with live plants that can be the primary food for my tortoise. I am looking at a seed mix which contains
- Crimson Clover
- White New Zealand Clover
- Red Clover
- Plantain
- Turf Fescue
- Orchard Grass
- Fescue, Creeping Red
- Chia
- Chicory
- Turnip Greens
- Timothy grass
- Kentucky Bluegrass
