I saw a bunch of mushrooms out in they're outside enclosure, they haven't gotten to them yet and we are going to pull them. But if they do eat, bad??

Here in Florida I've found that most of the wild mushrooms are toxic, so I try to get rid of them as quickly as I see them.
Mushrooms are some of my tortoises favorite foods.............

They seem to love rotting organic matter. In my case I get them in the summer when my mulch begins to break down. I can generally make them go away by dumping new mulch over the top.

It's been raining down here in tx lately and humid I think that's what's causing it, we gonna add some more soil like you said. Thank you
