Thanks.

One of the hatchling passed away. I'm not sure why, but I decided to move them. they are currently in a south bedroom, and maybe it got a little warm for them. So I'm setting up a fresh tank in a bedroom on the north side of house, where it tends to be several degrees cooler. I'm using a fresh tank, with new bedding, figured that was easier to do to make sure that it wasn't caused by something in the old bedding. I'm also adding moss to the tank in case it was a water issue, I've been misting their cage in addition to having a water dish (coconut fiber substrate) but I wonder if it would be easier for them to get water droplets off of moss.

Anyway, it's been 48 hours since the one died and the others seem to be fine, so maybe it was just bad genes, or maybe it choked on a cricket, I don't know.
