Hi Guys.
So my turtle loves to hop on top of his food bowl and eat while on top of his food and in most cases he urinates and goes to the bathroom in his food bowl. I'm constantly cleaning it to make sure he doesn't get sick. Is this normal? Should I just place his food in a corner of his cage without a bowl?
His bedding is currently substrate which is OK if he digests it (according to the pet store and according to the product instructions.)
Would you guys recommend this? Just to drop food on the substrate without a bowl? If I do this it would free up some room in his cage and therefore giving him more room to wander around.
Let me know what you think.
