I’m in South FL...
I have only had my Tort about a month, the previous owner gave me an igloo type dog shelter for him.. (as I read many comments about).
I noticed he has slightly burrowed, at least removed most of the grass and is mostly on dirt...
Does this mean he is looking for for humidity by burrowing?? Looking for heat by burrowing???
My main question is...
I see many enclosures with wooden bottoms... Does that mean if a tort has the optimum heat/humidity they won’t try to burrow??
I would like to build him a wooden enclosure with a bottom similar to the ones I see here.
Feedback appreciated?
