Ha ha! My reds are well known for eating poop. I don't stop them - I figure they know what they're doing. (Just be careful if it's any dog or cat poop when the animal has been treated with Ivermectin.

Eating their own poop is totally normal. Really gross but normal.

Recycling is all. Totally normal

And also don't release it into the wild over something like this. Sheesh, talk about throwing out the baby with the bath water!

I think they are trying to say to"not worry about it" when they said "let it go"... Not literally let the tortoise go.

glad to introduce some levity to the hobby.

I hope you took it as "having fun" and not "making fun" right?
