Very messy coco coir?

[MyTortoise]

I've just put down some coco coir for my tortoise but its sticking to her face and legs so its going in her food and her eyes!! What should I do?

I believe the reason it's sticking to the tort because the tort is dry . I think after the moisture leval goes up the tort will be covered with a fine layer of moisture and it will not stick to the tort .

Also, pack it down with your hand. If it is packed down, your baby won't be able to track around so much and it won't be so messy.
