I posted a thread a little while back explaining that I would be tort sitting for a friend. I received several great tips on care sheets to read to prepare for our house guest! However, I've noticed now that the little RF's eyes are a bit weepy... like teary kind of. From what I've read, this seems to be caused by humidity issues. He's in a big plastic tub, with the substrate that his owner uses... kind of a bark like mixture. I've been wetting it down every day, misting the tort a few times a day, and he has soaked a few times. A water bowl (large enough for him to climb into) is also provided at all times. Any suggestions? Should I maybe get some of that Mosser Lee Sphagnum moss to put in there? If so, does that need to be wet as well? I've had him for one week and he was doing great, but today was the first time I noticed the runny eyes. I'm going to have him till next Sunday, so I want to make sure I"m doing this right. Any tips or advice would be wonderful! Thank you!!
