    Repti bark found in poop

    Hello All! My 6 month old marginated tortoise likes to dig around in his repti back and his head gets in there quite deep. I assume he is just curious and digging around because that's what they do. Maybe even having a bit fun. But I guess he has been eating some because I recently found some...

    The Garden stores near me are all re stocking since spring is around the corner, they won't have any for a couple weeks at least. I am going to try coco coir and repti bark mix from petsmart for the time being, unless you don't think that is a good idea?
