keep a few things in mind.
-i just finished setting it up, so it looks a little dry, but hopefully in a little bit it will be in the 70-80% range.
-The light i am using is from RONA and it is low watt and has all the light spectrum as i'm trying to grow real plants in there. when the plants are more mature it should provide more shaded areas outside his huts. Tomorrow i am going to grab some window screen and use that under the light so its not so bright. The plants that i am trying out are sweet potato vines.
-I have gotten rid a few clutter items in there so the substate is a little laking, i have another bag of cyprus mulch on order.
-The che light is 250 W and i am playing around with its distance from the floor to make sure its not to hot not to cold, might just get a sensor if its an issue but for now i think ill try without. i have a temperature gun and am actively monitoring the temperatures all around the enclosure to make sure they are good.
So yeah, any criticism are welcome or ideas for the future. i have had him for a few years and have been constantly trying to get his living arrangement as close to perfect as i can. so any and all advice is appreciated
Also, should i add something to the inside of his huts, like moss or anything, so he can burrow himself more? hes always scratching at the backs of them like he is trying to dig it sounds like.
