Other substrate considerations.
Often there is also the question of the danger of the turtle swallowing the substrate. This is a rather exaggerated issue among growers. Remember that turtles in nature also swallow the substrate when they eat.
For peace of mind, however, we can put a ceramic plate in the place of food intake.
Also, remember to regularly replace the substrate every few weeks to keep your terrarium fresh and hygienic.
