ProRep Bedding Tortoise Life 10L

ProRep Tortoise Life 10L is a specialist reptile substrate designed for tortoises, especially arid-habitat species such as Mediterranean tortoises and Russian tortoises. It gives you a practical bedding base for creating a natural-feeling enclosure floor that supports everyday tortoise keeping.

Made from a natural loam, sand and limestone mix, it provides a textured surface with useful moisture retention and added limestone. That makes it a sensible choice for enclosures where you want to support natural behaviours while keeping conditions appropriate for dryland tortoises.

It is also suitable for many species of arid-habitat lizards.

Spread the substrate evenly across the enclosure base to create a comfortable, practical layer for your tortoise.

• Use a depth of at least 2" / 5cm for young animals.
• For mature animals, use up to 6" / 15cm or more.
• Russian tortoises may need a deeper layer because they burrow extensively.
• Spray selected areas if you want local humidity, but do not make the substrate too wet.

A controlled amount of moisture in selected areas can help create a more natural enclosure environment without soaking the whole substrate.

• Replace completely every 2 to 3 weeks.
• Keep an eye on moisture levels so the bedding does not become too wet.

Approximate pack dimensions are useful for storage planning and for checking how much space the unopened bag will take up.
