Oh okay, it always confuses me as a lot of them look similar but are different costs ect. The cheapest repti bark I've found is £22 for a 26 litre bag but I'll have a look around for orchid bark, thanks for your replys probably will save me lots of money:D

What so repti and orchid are the same thing? He's a horsefield tortoise, 11 years old but I will also be getting another baby horsefield soon so need something that suits them both (in different enclosures don't worry:D)

Hey, I was just wondering what people's options were on repti bark as substrate, I know everyone has different opinions some will like it some won't but I'm debating whether to try it, I've heard it's decent? Thanks.

Yes thankyou I also do too, I'm going to purchase a new one it will be double the size of this one so plenty of space for him, I did have him on garden soil x playsand mix but I'm just trying out different ones at the minute seeing which ones work best. I've heard that reptibark is quite good...

Yes definately, I'm going to order the one that's double the size of this one so he will have much more room. Ahh thankyou for the caresheet, it's definately hard when there is so many different opinions but I'll have a look at that. Yes I never usually let him eat on that surface it was just...

I'm trying out different substrates to try find the best...

Fair enough that's true, at least he found a good home with you but I bet you couldn't live without him now. Yeah I've come across this forum many times when looking for advice but sometimes you can never find the exact thing so I decided to join. I mean I got Sheldon when I was 8 so I won't lie...

Ah bless is that him in your picture? do you have any more tortoises? Haha a similar thing happened to me, Sheldon did used to be shelly when I first got him but like you he eventually showed us he wasn't a shelly, luckily the name was easy enough to sort of swap. That would be amazing having a...

Hey, how old is lola? I love leopards shells there so nice. Yeah I will definately be having a look at that see what more I can learn. no they won't be kept in the same enclosure I've read about that, will be kept in separate. Also I'm doing some research about breeds, I love Russians but I...

New member so just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Georgia and I'm from the UK, I have a 10 year old russian/horsefield tortoise called Sheldon, hopefully will be getting another soon too, how many tortoises does everyone else own?
