Hello- First post here.
I have a one year old female Greek tortoise, that is native species here in Lebanon. They mostly live in drier parts of the country where humidity is about 50. I have her outside currently in a 5' x 2' enclosure and I am using soil which is quite rocky as the substrate. Play sand is not available to mix in. I can get regular sand but I am worried about the tort eating it. I was using aspen as substrate before and since I switched to soil, the tort has started shedding her skin.
Here in the city the air humidity in summer is 70-85. If the air is this humid, do I have to mist the soil at all? I plan to keep her outside year round since in winter the coldest it gets is 5 degrees Celsius. Thanks in advance.
