Yard Consultation

  • Are you thinking about making a habitat for a new tortoise?
  • Would you like some advice on your existing tortoise habitat?
  • Do you have questions about tortoise habitats?
  • Do you live in Nevada?

Tortoise Group staff will help you design your yard for a tortoise, whether or not you get the tortoise from Tortoise Group. Where you might dig the all-important burrow, how to dig that burrow, where there are unseen hazards in your yard, and what some good plants are. Check out our tortoise care booklet.

Tortoise Group charges a consulting fee of $10 for members and $20 for nonmembers.
