Hello everyone. I am new to the tortoise forum but not new to the forum. Haha Anyways, I got a Russian Tort. last night the lady said she believed it is a female. She is eating hard boiled eggs, and teh soft gel. I do have veggies and greens mixed in her food as well, that i read they are supposed to eat and i couldn't find anything on eggs. So is it ok to be feeding them hardboiled eggs?

I also have her in a custom made tank and i have tile down with carefresh bedding. It seems to be a bit slippery so i would like to go with something like perlite or something. Is perilite ok?

One more question they DO make a sound when going back into their shells correct? I have read yes and i have read no so i would like your opinions. Thanks in advance soo much!
