    Eating Problem

    So my Russian finally started eating again, and now he only eats when he is outside. Whenever I take him out, he'll cruise around the yard and graze on weeds and grass for hours. When he's inside all day however, he won't touch his food, not even if I feed him weeds from the yard. Is this...

    Getting ready to build an outdoor enclosure

    So, I have a few questions. First what do you guys use on the bottom of enclosures to keep them from digging out? Second, I have a lot of scorpions on the property, will they be a problem? And last, will a heavily shaded area be okay? This is a pic of where I'm thinking of putting it.

    Are hides neccesary?

    My russian completely ignores his hides, instead he just burrows in the same spot every day. Would it be okay to remove it?

    Eating Moss

    My russian ate a bunch of his spaghum moss the other day I'm assuming. When I soaked him he passed a good chunk of it, not digested at all. Is this a serious problem? He hasn't eaten in a few days, but I also moved him to a new enclosure, and just got his temps right tonight.

    How low can you go?

    How low can you hang lights and they still be safe? Is 9-10 inches too low? I'm trying to raise my temps a couple degrees.
