Joe's only allowed on the laminate floor or the tiles... I value my carpets.

Same applies to my son when he gets back from rugby!

If there viv/table is big enough they won't need this and is really not good for them. In summer you can let them roam outside in a penned area.

I would certainly keep them to one room for a start. Then buy carpet cleaner and spot clean after your tortoises.....simples

I only let mine have a wander following their bath when I know they've emptied themselves. So far, I've had no problems, but I don't have them out and about on the floor for long periods. With four children and myself dashing about all day, it wouldn't be sensible!

They are wild animals and RF live in a tropical climate one's house is not usually that.
