Sorry I can’t figure out how to update my last thread to show you guys. I wanted an update on temperatures and how it’s looking now :) I’m going to be purchasing some bark to keep the coco fiber out of his water bowl and also buying 2 terra cotta planter bottoms. You guys have been so amazing to me I hope I can pay it forward some day ❤️

Please watch the video of him too!!

Looks really nice. You shouldn't have any trouble with humidity. If it were me I'd add a bunch of plants. Maybe a small wood shelf across the top with some plants like Pothos that hang down into the enclosure.

Thank you! Any other plants that you know would work? I’m going to contact my local nursery bc I’m not sure I trust Home Depot not using pesticides

If you can find in a grocery what they call living lettuce you could try that. It is a round head of lettuce with the roots attached. Would make a nice treat he could nibble on. Also you could try pulling some dandelions from your yard and replant them in the enclosure. Not sure if they would root or not but he might like nibbling on them too. The cactus looking hens and chicks work good.
