Hey guys, I'm Steph. I introduced myself in the Introductions forum but thought I'd come say hi here because I'm going to be getting an Egyptian Tortoise soon.
I also have a question. I'm haveing trouble finding a consensus on what substrate to use with these little guys. I'm finding alot of "I use _____because _____ and everyone who uses _____ is wrong because ______" sort of statements. (speaking of the Internet as a whole) I'm going to be getting a 5 month old and I plan on using paper towels at first because they will be easier to keep clean and change and, I figure, also easier for the little dude to get around on. Is this incorrect? Either way, what's the best substrate to use when they get on it, be it now or later?
TIA
