So, we're in the process of redoing the tortoise enclosure and I want to double check on a few things. I recently went to this website:
http://www.africantortoise.com/edible_landscaping.htm
I've been looking for ideas on what sort of plants to include in their enclosure for hiding spots, snacks, etc. One of the ones that caught my attention was spider plants. We have a huge spider plant that is always trying to give us little spider plants. It's not given any fertilizers and I have organic soil to plant the "babies" in. This is an okay plant for sulcatas? For sure?
They're also going to have grass planted and I'm thinking some other tasty bits like strawberry plants, etc. Essentially just little things for them to nibble on and hide under.
I am also trying to figure out a way to build a marshy area in their indoor enclosure. Has anyone had any success with this? Ideas?
