Is moss peat a good substrate??? for greek tortoise? - peat moss and tortoise

Peat from a garden center is a good substrate for a Greek tortoise

AlexD said...: If you have a feel for the audience, which looks like black earth, dark, I do not see a problem with using this * IF * The game will be mixed with sand (available by the taste of Toys R U.S.). Do not use peat only, would be so terrible drainage (peat is often used to the water retention of soil, which is the opposite of what you need to improve) and Greek tortoises need a substrate drain very well.

In fact, a question that can be seen (although I do not know if they are above the caution) is that acidic peat soil, and I have no idea what impact, if any, with a substrate of acid turtles were in their skin.

Better to buy your garden center would be "top shelf", if you can find it. The mixture of (50/50) playing with sand.

Hope this helps?

For me, it is advisable that the trainer of many who just go out and find a forest and get to land there. Simple, cheap and clean and it works very well too:)
