Right kind of topsoil?

[Tortlee83]

Hi all!!

I'm following the baby Russian tortoise care PDF and I couldn't find the ACE top soil but i found the Cowart Premium Top Soil at ACE. I'm going to mix this with the repti bark. Any thoughts? My baby Russian tortoise will be here on tuesday!!!!

For an indoor enclosure? I typically don't use soil because of the weight. If you want the substrate to function as a growing medium also, I'd use coir and compost.
