My RF baby will be here in a month, and I'm starting to pull together a list of things I need:
-Plastic tub (How high should the sides be? I think higher sides would make the humidity higher, but I also want to be able to see the tort)
-Sphagnum moss
-Plants
-Timer for lights
-thermometer/humidity gauge
-hides
-water and food dish
Also, atm I have plans to buy a 100 watt full-spectrum day light (the kind they use for people with SAD) and a 60 watt CHE. I'm wondering if I should use a heat pad underneath the enclosure instead. I've read mixed things about them. If I use a small heat pad and wrap it in a towel or something...? yes? no? maybe?
Also, have I forgotten anything obvious?
