I always used pro rep or tortoise life with all my torts hatchlings and adults and never had any problems, don't forget though that like all soil based substrates it must be sprayed daily and even watered over night, the top will dry but you need some moisture underneath. I prefered it to top soil as it was always consistantly good where as I used to find all sorts of unwanted objects in top soil plus it was often far to wet to use straight from the bag, I did however use the soil from molehills collected in the summer, the moles do a brilliant job at breaking it down and removing rubbish.
