I see a lot of you plant things in your enclosures...what do you plant? Won't they just eat it all right away? I have 2 Russian tortoises btw
tyrs4u said:Luckily they don't eat everything immediately. Plus if you provide them with their normal diet; they tend to use the growing plants as shade or humidity. In my Tortoise/Dog run, (had no idea what else to call it) I have just about anything fruity or Veggie growing that they’ll enjoy. Basically go to Home Depot and grab the two for $5 deal on grown out tomatoes and strawberries etc. Or start from seeds.
I purchased my seeds via "Carolina Pet Supply LLC"
