[split]Leopard Tortoise Substrate Help Please!

[erosal]

Hi I am from HK as well and just recently bought 2 Leopard torts.

I was wondering if you were able to find the coco coir for a substrate. I am aslo using corn cob as it was recommended by the pet shop. Can you share where your got the coco coir?

Hi Elmer:

I thought I posted this before, but it must have been on someone else's thread.

I don't know where you can get it in Hong Kong, but I'm betting its the same as it is here. Any pet store sells it. It is a rectangular package, about the same size as a real brick, and it is called Bed-A-Beast. It is compressed. You just have to sit it in a bucket of water and it falls apart for you. This is what it looks like:
