I keep my Charina with a similar setup. I have mine is 24" Visions with a thick layer of aspen, and the same deli cup but with a lid and a hole cut out in the top. I have it full of moss and do exactly what Markg mentioned. I let it dry out and then dampen it again. I also have heat under the cage set at 80. It shuts off at night, but my ambient temps in my house are always 70-72. I do brumate my adult charina's in the winter months. I feed babies year round until 2 years old. This has worked well for me for the last several years and usually have a few nice litters every year!
