I have a 3 year old russian tort, and an average enclosure. I want to make sure that my tort has a happy life, and his enclosure is not exactly exciting, so I wondered if anyone had any idea on what kind of things to put in, or add on? Thanks!

What do you mean by average? How big is it? What shelter, lighting, substrate, planting, etc do you have? A picture paints a thousand words by the way :)

I can't see the pics either. In my opinion to make a russian happy you need to provide space and lots of it. If you can setup an outdoor enclosure (weather permitting) that would be best. Indoors, try to go as big as possible. You can add different hides, mound the substrate up in areas so he/she has some hills and some deep substrate for burrowing. Maybe try to add some plants so he has different areas to hide under.

Its hard to say without seeing your setup. Tell us a little about it and also where about in the world you are.
