lisa127 said:I'm asking because I am still trying to find what I like best. I have two juvenile box turtles. One is small at about 3.5 inches and one is a monster at about 5.75 inches SCL. The larger one has always been on a substrate of coco coir with long fibred new Zealand sphagnum moss mixed in. The smaller one has a substrate of peat moss with some finely shredded bark mixed in. I am actually liking that mix at the moment. Someday I'll decide what works best...lol.
Lisa I like that mix too! I am not a fan of coco coir. Peat moss does not dry out fast, soft, & doesn't stick to everything as bad as the coir IMO.
