I've successfully brunated my Eastern boxie group for 10 years each winter (outside) now and have run into something I haven't dealt with before.
All summer I've had a few mice running around their pens. No consequences have occurred so I've left them alone. As I get the outdoor pens ready, I'm hesitant about the dormate turtles and mice.
I would think the mice would be interested in the insulation and not turtle, thoughts?
The brunation pens are 2 feet x 2feet (for each turtle), lined with 2 inch styrofoam, 20 inches of soil to burry in (our freeze line is 9 inches), with another 15 inches of straw on top for good measure.
Thanks in advance for thoughts and experiences.
