Still making changes and altering / adding things to Michaelanglo's home, but here it is so far. I am putting coco husk in to make a humid area for him, any more suggestions?

What is the little white things in the substrate? It looks like the fertilizer stuff that is in plant potting soil. If it is, you need to remove it. Also, you might want to put a flat rock in the water dish to make it easier for him to get out. A few plants would be nice and a second hide. One hot side one cool

It's calcium within te substrate, incase he eats it, it doesn't cause the tort to be impact either. A few people have asked that but no just calcium lol. It's tortoise life substrate and I have found he's doing well on this. Thanks for the advice, I shall go put tomorrow and get a few more bits and bobs for him and upload some more Piks.


Also what plants do you recommend?

Maybe it's an English thing? Lol. I have found many people on here are actually from the US, therefore use different things to me, including enclosures due to generally having warmer weather. We have already had a snow storm here! Very cold! I was recommend the substrate from a friend and from a local reptile shop. Maybe you could find it on amazon?

You are doing a great job! Very nice place for him to grow up. I am constantly improving Tessi and Torti's enclosure also.

Thankyou. I know I'm the same! It's like my very own little project! Haha. I still need to add the coco husk substrate at the cool end to provide more humidity, no doubt I will have moved things and added things when I do this.
