Hello,
I've purchased two cherryhead redfoots, which will arrive tomorrow (YES!) and, after showing some pictures of my enclosure to the breeder, she did not recommend using sphagnum moss as a substrate within the hide areas. Apparently she's had bad luck with this, and I don't doubt her in the slightest (not the point of this thread).
I'm hoping some of you might have some suggestions for a good substrate to put in the hides for humidity and borrowing into??? The entire enclosure has a base of soil & peat moss (~60-30 mix, respectively) and is topped with a couple inches of cypress mulch.
Thoughts on a good hide substrate for 2 cherryheads (other than sphagnum moss)?
Thanks,
Chris
