Arlo is my new high white leopard tortoise that I got only 2 days ago. The first day he arrived I let him get settled in his enclosure, thinking that he would be very shy and stressed for the next couple of days, however yesterday when i offered him food he was not hesitant to eat it out of my hand! He's been great so far and has quickly warmed up to me. Although I have done a lot of research prior to Arlo's arrival I still have a few questions about leopard tortoise husbandry:
1. Is Repti-bark a suitable substrate for this species?
2. I know that Arlo is a hatchling, but can anyone identify roughly how many months old he is? I'm assuming he's under 6 months. He measures at roughly 2"3/4 - 3" inches.
Thanks for all the help!!
