New enclosure!

[Zac dale]

Getting an early christmas present for my little Leopard tortoise! I'll post more pics in 3 weeks when I get it! It has a strip UVB and a heat lamp with it! Its pretty big, you can see a sulcata in the top right. I will only put him in there at night time, the rest of the time he is outside in the garden.
What substrate should I use for him? Should I plant live grass and weeds? Or should I plant them separately and just feed them to him?

Very nice! I use orchid moss for my substrate and have a few plants / grass in the enclosure as well. Lowes sells the orchid moss (comes in a "brick"). I think I only paid $5 for it. I'd post a link to it for you, but Lowe's site is undergoing maintenance at the moment.

I don't move babies outside until they're 3 or 4 years old.
