Hello all,
i have a juvenile red foot in a large black cement mixing tub, with reptibark substrate mixed with sphagnum moss and organic top soil. It’s partially covered 80% with a clear plastic wrap. I also have a humidifier that keeps the humidity at 70%.
I’m noticing when I lift up his hide, one of those half cut logs, that the substrate is completely soaked underneath. Is this normal? I understand having two hides, one humid and one dry, but I’m curious if it’s too wet? It’s wet enough that there is a clear difference in the substrate on top and it’s pretty wet to the touch. I don’t want my little guy to get shell rot from laying on top wet substrate.
