gosh....sounds like you've got things pretty well under control. How much BIGGER is the new enclosure? .....is it a tank as well?

: He gets fed Mesclun Mix from the supermarket, plus dandelion leaves, and other assorted greens.
: We have some tortoise chow that we give him now and then.

: When we soak him he does his duty now and then, but now that I think about it, not as much as he used to. With the reptile bark in the enclosure it is hard to tell if he is going regularily. With the calci-sand you could tell.

: Tonight I am going to make the enclosure half sand/half bark. Maybe that will do something. My sister-in-law has tortoise's, I will ask her advise in the AM. I tried to call the shop where I bought him, but they must be closed.
