@wellington Ok thank you. As far as substrate goes what do you think? How much mulch should i add as a top layer
?

From Hermanni Haven: "The substrate can be up to 4” deep to allow for burrowing. Burrowing is 100% normal! Do not be alarmed by his behavior while they are this young. They are babies after all and babies sleep. I also recommend adding cypress mulch as a 2” top layer but you can also mix it in to the existing substrate. The mulch aids in keeping an adequate humidity level which should be around 70%."

Even with the bark over it, they'll still find a way to make a mess, especially in the water. But the bark does help minimize it, especially when it comes to getting the soil stuck up in their sensitive bits

Welcome to the forum!

This one is not a baby, it's a subadult.

Toi could also try a ramp from the old enclosure to a new addition.

@wellington That's probably what I'm leaning towards.
