Komodo Tortoise Eco Terrain, 10ltr - For Desert-Dwelling Tortoises

The professionals' choice of reptile bedding.

Tortoise Eco Terrain has been created to meet the flooring needs of Mediterranean, Russian and other species of tortoises found in arid environments.

This substrate helps to replicate the terrain found in their natural environment and a deep layer of Tortoise Eco Terrain aids in allowing tortoises to carry out normal burrowing behaviour.

This 100% naturalistic tortoise substrate is made up of a soil and sand mix and is also suitable for use with certain lizards.

• Naturalistic tortoise substrate
• Soil and sand mix
• 100% natural product
• Encourages natural digging and burrowing behaviour
• Suitable for use with certain lizards

How to use: A deep layer of Tortoise Eco Terrain aids in allowing tortoises to carry out normal burrowing behaviour. Spread a level layer of substrate on the base of the enclosure, at least 5cm for juvenile tortoises and increase the depth for adults. Horsfield’s Tortoises (Testudo Horsfieldii) will require a deeper layer. Spot clean daily replacing soiled substrate with fresh. Change Tortoise terrain every 2-3 weeks. Please note if using heat mats with your tortoise these items should be placed on the side of the enclosure and not beneath. Tortoises burrow to avoid heat, placing heat mats on the base of the enclosure presents an unnatural situation.

Tortoise Eco Terrain can be used by species other than tortoises, including:

• Tortoise: desert-dwelling tortoises, such as the Mediterranean tortoises and Russian tortoises, but it does little for tropical species. Ensure that your tortoise prefers an arid enclosure before adding this substrate.
• Lizards: Suitable for use with certain lizards.
  

Size: 10ltr

Important: Please ensure that your bedding of choice is suitable for your scaly friend as using a substrate that isn't suitable for their species can cause respiratory issues and impaction.
