I've been using cypress mulch mixed with coconut chips but wanted to switch to something that wouldn't irritate his eyes. I boiled water and followed the instructions on the coconut coir packaging and my tortoise seems to really like digging in it and moving it around but when I picked him up it looked like some of it was getting on his eyes and so I gave him a warm water bath and used veterinarian eye wash safe for tortoises. That helps keep his eyes from being irritated but am worried about the long lasting effects of using the coco coir and how badly it will keep bothering his eyes.
Thanks for your help.
