I have my Sulcata hatchling on a 50/50 topsoil and peat moss substrate. My question is, does the whole substrate need to be moist, or just his hide box for humidity? In other words, should the entire enclosure be a little replica of their natural habitat (dry and hot for the majority of the enclosure, with a humid "hide-spot"? Or, since in the wild, hatchlings stay in a humid burrow mostly, should the enclosure mimic that (moist and humid throughout)? Hopefully this makes sense.. haha
Also, want to double check on my temps. it's around 100 degrees directly under the lights, 85-88 in the middle of the enclosure, and about 78 on the cool side. Are these temps. okay?
