For Ed as promised- indian stars

As recomended by Darren, i got the Jerry D fife book on indian stars and made a few changes what do you think?
Peat at the top to hold humidity
then timothy grass at the bottom
It is alot lighter but my camera is broken so had to use a phone camera

Ed it was Darren who told me to get the book, i got it from america and is leopard tortoise one. Its brilliant some of his points are amazing:

Like if you want a female tortoise, choose the one with split or extra scutes and this normally happens with hight temps so more offen than not they are females.

And that dried dandelions have 17.5% protein a fresh one is 2.5%

Mazuri is 15% protein dry so once soaked this is reduced.

Great points
