Hi where my outside enclosure is going to be sited is over hanging Hawthorne tree,s
I read on the forum that conifer was ok to be near enclosure
Does anyone know about Hawthorne,can it be toxic to torts.If it is i can prune it back.
So the blossom and berrys dont fall into the enclosure
Thanks Paul.

Hi sorry about the post

.Grasping at straws again was hoping someone was going to say the tree would not bother torts.
I think i will just cut it right back,to be on the safe side

ill get the chainsaw.
