Good evening Adam. Hope you're all well.

Anything new back there? Did Oli Kahn get of little Oli's enclosure?
Good evening, Gillian. :)
Yes, the two Olis are both currently under my bed.
They are both very happy because I have now got the heating on and it's cosy and warm under there. :D

I was told so many different things by 4 different vets... euro rep, specialist reptile breeders I called for advice about the enclosure including substate.... got told to use the grass pellets, sand, and shredded newspaper, hay, and reptile carpet! I wasn't happy with this so that's when I chose the sterilized loam and sand mix, then found out sand is no good, I got told they need alot of clean air flow and dry substrate.... so thats why here to get the right information these are a few of the main important items iv ordered
Awesome![emoji217]

Just can't seem to think of a safe way to allow him to get higher to the best source with out him finding it either hard to climb or falling... his too small to climb a log and if I build up slate that can burn his belly so that's the smallest one I could find! When you say a tile to feed him off you don't mean the rough side of a kitchen/bathroom tile as surely that's made of harmful materials? Now for the hunt of a small piece of slate hmmm
Raise the hight of substrate?

They're both under your bed are they? :confused: What if they begin to quarrel and little Oli starts to bully Oli Kahn? ;) :rolleyes: Adam, please take care and keep in mind that torts do not like company. ;) :D

They seem to mostly get along.
Tort Oli has bitten big Oli a couple of times, he's only bitten back once.
I think I'll put a divider up between them, just in case !
