Hi all, I'm new to tortoise keeping, I live in Wales in the UK, I've done a fair bit of research before purchasing a 2 year old Leopard which I keep in a 4foot enclosed Viv, Here is my main man Lento (which is Spanish for slow) any advice for caring for him? ??

Welcome to the forum! Leopard tortoises are great. You can search the forum for the care sheet. Enjoy your new tortoise.

you might wanna buy some new substrate.
i see hay in there which will mold if there's too much humidity.
you should buy orchid bark or coco coir

some more plants and a humid hide would be great too.
you can use a plastic box and cut a hole into it so that your tortoise will fit inside.
don't forget to moisten the substrate to boost the humidity a bit :)
