Good morning everyone!

For those who are following my Jacky and Daisy thread I shall be hibernating Jacky but not Daisy. I shall begin by feeding them separately and monitoring what they both eat whilst getting a new enclosure set up for Daisy.

Jacky is eating a lot less now but I shall soak her a few more times before stopping altogether. I shall order a new enclosure for Daisy but can anyone give me any suggestions for substrate? I understand there is edible substrate.

The only edible substrate I know of is hay but hay should not be used as substrate.
Coconut coir or orchid bark is the most recommened.
This substrate is for the one you are keeping up correct?
