@ZEROPILOT i wanted to give you an update on my RF, Bolivar, and I who are living in the Great Basin Desert. I spent quite some time building him a new enclosure that is 3 square feet bigger than his old one. I also raised the light so its not too hot, got him new mulch, and gave him a large terracotta dish to bathe in whenever he wants. His diet includes much more fruit than before and he is so so calm. Any enrichment activities for him? I gave him a ramp to climb on and it seems to make him calm down when he spends some time messing with it. its almost foreign to me to not have him going insane all the time. the humidity was at around 70 percent in some parts of the tank and 60 percent in the rest. he is much happier thanks to you! he is doing great

Great news.
He's no longer stressed out and now he's comfortable.
Work on getting that humidity up a bit more and that ramp is probably a flipping over hazard in the making. So keep an eye on him.

Someone is usually always home because my brother is in online school, so he is at home during the day and can watch him.
