My babies are from Lorenzo and Zumbida, which I bought from a breeder in Florida, of all places. Since then I have found many wild gophers, but I leave them in the wild unless they are in danger, in which case I release them at my friends's acreage which is heavily gopher infested and away from roads.

Lorenzo is very sociable, liking to hang out in the open on top of his hide box and watch the activity in the house, whereas his mate Zumbida is so shy she is hardly ever seen and has to be fed in a cup under the hide box. I take him out of the cage to feed her, as he is a big pig, too.

Them this spring making those babies!


A little wild gopher I rescued from a cat a few years ago. This is what they look like in my neck of the woods; no stripers, alas.
