Safe 'toys' for torts

locker18 · 07-12-2009, 04:16 PM

Are there any 'toys' or anything else that you can put in the enclosure for your torts to 'play' with? x

Tortoises dont 'play'
But they do enjoy things to hide under or walk around.

Its always good to have things in your tortoise enclosure for them to walk around like fake or real cactus, they will want to walk around them to see whats on the other side, making your enclosure more exciting and they are getting exercise. I really recommend the fake cactus you can get they last foever and look great in a enclosure

They like plant pots, some people buy special balls for them.
I have a pottery tortoise in with them that they enjoy climbing all over

Def plant pots laid down and packed with soil. Mine spends many happy hours digging and scratching (goes right through me lol).

I've bought for mine "tortoise ball" but for reason.He's been "jumping"(you know what I mean...

) rocks lately in his enclosure so I thought he may like to get a ball for his naughty games.
