I am in California with 3 three toed box turtles. We are getting ready to build a new turtle habitat outside in our yard to replace our current one which does not stay moist enough. We have chosen a spot that gets sun as well shade throughout the day and will stay cool. Enclosure will be above ground with wood sides. Our main question concerns the base of the enclosure. Is it necessary and/or recommended to place hardware cloth or some type of barrier under the dirt so the turtles don't dig too far down in the dirt?
The ground is dirt/soil.
Thanks for any suggestions!
