Find a productProduct description
This fine, loose soil is intended for keepers of young land tortoises who want a clean, natural substrate with no chemical additives. Because the soil is sieved, washed and cleaned before packing, it suits the small limbs and shells of juvenile animals that need a safe surface to dig, rest and move on.
Why it matters
- The soil is sieved, washed and cleaned, which reduces contaminants in the enclosure.
- Its fine, loose structure lets small tortoises walk, burrow and rest without difficulty.
- It is described as holding a gentle level of moisture rather than drying the enclosure out quickly.
- The mix contains no fertilizers, salts or other additives and can be used directly after opening.
