seed mix from http://sulcatafood.com one of a few I planted, let's see how Larry likes it. Next project is to start a bigger enclosure with good plywood. I guess I'll go with a 4x8 size enclosure any input for the size? Before anyone ask about so many lights, uv and daytime heat in the back and 2 heat emitters in the front . I had the small wattage emitter and instead of buying the more expensive wattage I bought another small wattage IMG_5205.JPGIMG_5206.JPG

Did you grow that in his enclosure, and what's his bedding??

Bedding is forest floor, and I started it outside of the enclosure. It took about 2 weeks to get like that.

Is there some sort of light over the greens?

Nice size enclosure. I'll bet he's pretty happy in there.

Yes he's pretty happy. I don't have a light over it , but it's bright in there that's just a dark pic. My lights are on a timer 12 hrs on and 12 off. When they go off my heat emitters come on. The enclosure is 80% humidity. I'm hoping they do good in there
