Chase said:Thanks! I would love Sampson to live outside, but I currently live in an apartment and I live in Texas. We only have a few months out of the year with nice weather". Our winters (ha, if you can call them that) and summers are very very humid. It's very common for it to be 95% humidity and 100F outside during the summer, I was always under the impression that humidity is a Russian's worst enemy.

It seems to work better than a bowl for us as well because he tends to push his food around, and it keeps the food out of the substrate and gives him space to do so. I have half a tile because my guy is still tiny. They are about $2 at Home Depot. Cute tort!
Yvonne-That's an awesome idea. You sound very handy.
Chase said:The only issue I see having with this tile is keeping it clean. Sampson has already peed all over it, and I see urates on it too.. d'oh!

Where in Texas do you live? I'm in the Houston area. And no kidding about our lack of winter. Had mine back outside today with sunny and 70 degree weather.

Hey Greg! I live in New Braunfels (Between San Antonio and Austin). I live in an apartment, so there's no place to put Sampson
