Forgot to mention; make the cypress mulch deep enough in some areas for the tort to bury himself in. This is the only "hides" they need, although extra hides are OK. Try to make the hidebox or bark or whatever low enough so the back of the torts shell just or almost touches the inside hide top. This keeps in humidity better and they like the feeling of security a low ceiling gives them.
