Hi all,

What temps do you keep your babies at night?

Should I use peat moss only for substrate? I currently have shredded cypress mulch. What is the best?

I read that it is not a good idea to have the substrate very deep so that the baby doesn't hide all the time. Do you agree?

My baby hasn't eaten yet but I did go get some red wigglers for it today. Hopefully it will eat in the next few days.

Thanks in advance
Linda
