Hello,

I am curious as to how much odor a red-footed tortoise has? I used to have an iguana and that stunk at times. I am just wondering how much it will stink? I am planning on changing the bedding often.

Thanks!

I have redfoots and ive never noticed an odor at all coming from them. I change substrate about every 2 months in their indoor enclosure. And have never had a problem.

Thanks! I personally wasn't all that worried about an odor at all. I'm new to them so I'm a bit unsure

It depends on the protein you feed . I know if I feed fish their poop smells . I walk into a wall of green fog in my garage.
