Hi I’m Lesley I have just become a mam
Of a 7month old Marginated tortoise called Pablo. I’d like some advice on the best bedding and best food for my little man, and anything else anyone thinks I should know would be great. The photos are of Pablo and his current set up, I have noticed he likes to make a mess

Welcome to the Forum!

I notice you're using coco coir as your new baby's substrate. It's quite messy, isn't it? I prefer fir bark. I buy it at a plant nursery and it's packaged as "Orchid Bark." Here in the U.S. it comes in three sizes, fine, medium and large. I prefer the 'fine' for baby tortoises because it's easier for them to walk on. You can keep it slightly moist and it doesn't turn sour.
