    My Russian Tort Albus

    He doesn't get everything in his diet all the time. Just the dark leafy greens daily. As far as the substrate and heat go I do spray it down along with him at least once a day.

    My Russian Tort Albus

    I should also say that there are many different types of advice on what to feed Russian Torts so I have done my homework. But the best advice always comes from you guys.

    My Russian Tort Albus

    Mine doesn't mine the enclosure. I also didn't say I was keeping him in that enclosure permanently. I do not want mine outside all the time and he shouldn't need to be outside all the time. As long as he is happy and healthy that is what I am going for. I posted for humidity and substrate...
