I am waiting for my permit from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and then i will be temporarily housing a juvenile Gopher Tort. I work at the Wildlife Discovery Center in Illinois and we aquired the tort in March and we have no where to put him. For a while he lived with the box turtles because they are the same size as the gopher, but they beat him up and it just is a horrible set up. I volunteered to take him home until we can get him a better permanent set up.
I am planning on doing a 3/4 closed top (to increase humidity) and using a coco substrate with some cypress mulch. I just wanted to know what you guys use for gopher torts ???
Thanks everyone !!
