decided to just go ahead and fill it all with dirt. hot side is saying 82% humidity with it being about 90 cool side. at the moment 128 - 133 basking spot, ambient is only 80 hot side, and ambient is hovering at 72.2 to 72.7. he is dragging his vent area around this new enclosure, although not seeing much of a "flower" at the moment, maybe due to young age or possibly a female? although he has very large buldges at the base of his tale and the large bumps at right above his nostrils. not nearly enough cover for him right now, will be buying stuff tomorrow, any recommendations for logs or any other functional items? i will get pictures of him as soon as i have an opportunity to do so, without disturbing him.
