So I finally changed Thor's indoor enclosure. (Pics tomorrow!) It used to be 4x6 ft. But I changed it to be 4x4 ft for now. Mainly because it's in the corner (only room I have at the moment), and it's really difficult to keep all that substrate moist considering I have my lights mounted.
Anyways, this way I can keep 100% of his substrate moist easily and it's still a good bit of room.
So all of my live plants are now outside for the summer and I decided to add some cinder blocks in his enclosure for sight barriers and to climb through. He attempted to eat / bite at the cinder block for I don't know, 5 minutes before he gave up and went to bed.
I also am trying something new with his water dish. I put rocks around it (like 1-2" rocks, he can't swallow them or anything) and he of course had to try those too!
My question is, even if he somehow manages to bite off very tiny pieces, is this extremely bad or nothing to worry about? We'll see tomorrow if he keeps it up, or if it was just a test (was 7pm when I finished, so he went to sleep fairly fast once I finished).
He has tried eating fake plants in the past, and would not give up trying on a daily basis to eat them, so that's when I moved to live plants.
