i have a compost bin for the residual tortoise food left behind
i also add in what the tortoises leave behind . . .
does anyone else do this? i just read on some compost website that i should avoid pet manures in compost because it could make the compost toxic to handle? i have one russian tortoise, vegetarian, and a redfoot hatchling who is still too little to eat worms/cat food, so i dont see what could possibly go wrong with my compost.
also, when should i start feeding proteins to the hatchling? he's a month and a half old, which i've been told is too little . . .
