Gopher tortoises do not bury their eggs; instead, they lay them in shallow nests dug into the ground. The female typically lays a clutch of 5 to 15 eggs in sandy soil, allowing them to incubate naturally. After laying the eggs, the mother does not provide any further care or protection. The young turtles emerge from the nest after about 80 to 100 days.
