Will anyone go to turtleborn’s pics and let me know your opinion on my proposed setup. Will the female use the sand dirt mix on the right? Sorry about the bad drawing. JC

Unfortunately, I don’t have much experience with that but I know Vickie uses a certain mixture to get just the right consistency. Best of luck. -Chun

It has to be moist enough for the hole to hold its shape but not wet. My concern when looking at your drawing is about the depth. It should be 5-6″ deep. It is similar to my outside setup for my dbts. I have a ramp they climb up and they do dig nests in the tub I set up. It is surrounded by screen on all sides but the one facing the tub. That way they can’t get out. Good luck, Vickie
