My Tortoises Love It
March 17, 2021
I use cedar chips at the base of my tortoise cages and Zoo Med New
Zealand Sphagnum Moss, above the cedar chips so that my tortoises can hide in it. The Zoo Med New Zealand Sphagnum Moss is much softer than the cedar chips and all my tortoises, from hatchlings to adults love to hide in it.

Pros
- it can be fluffed out and it's very soft.
Cons
- after a while it gets powdery and I do worry that when it gets powdery it may get into my tortoise's eyes.

I've been using Zoo Med New Zealand Sphagnum Moss for years as a substrate in my nest boxes for my Female Green Tree Pythons. This is my third bag and will continue to use this brand.
Pros
- Clean
Cons
- Need to break apart and shake off the small dust sized pieces.
