I have it slightly moist and have a lot of it so it creates an incline that she likes to climb up or dig into. It does dry out do I periodically dump some water in it..
Thanks Jane I'm sorry for all the questions I'm just wantin advise on someone who's tort is thriving in it so I may put my coir back in tomorrow and try puttin water in but not a lot I will do it so that if I squeeze it in my hand it just crumbles up does that sound about right :)

I always seem to put too much water in it and then have it hanging around in buckets to dry out a bit! I have it at the warm end of her enclosure so that it is warm moist not chilly moist. What age is Clyde?
