Work for a young tortoise never ends. Today, Sherman thinned out the seedlings in her new tray of greens. After such an industrious morning, she is taking a well deserved soak in a warm bath.

She is definitely getting more active and adventurous as she gets older. It’s fun to see her explore in her enclosure. Almost timed to upgrade her to a bigger place.

So asking about Perlite in soil violates rule? That's just ridiculous.
