I have a Speke’s Hinge back Tortoise. I got him a few months ago. He poops every couple days but it smells really bad. Maybe a change in diet can stop the smell? He usually poops in his water bowl/trey because he likes to sit and soak in it. I clean out the trey immediately after every poop because it stinks up the whole house!
Background:
He has a mulch-like substrate, a UV/heat lamp, a water trey, a food trey, a hide (cave), and a heating pad on one side of his terrarium for his basking area.
His diet consists of kale, collard greens, carrots and squash (squash is only twice a week, more of a treat).
He also has calcium powder and vitamin power which I sprinkle on his food accordingly
Here is an image of his terrarium this morning before I cleaned it out (he’s in his hide right now)
