I use deep aspen and terra cotta saucers for the kings and smaller pits. A favorite shelter is a saucer with a soda flat box over that, which also covers the moss hide. If they feel at ease they will come out and let me see them. They know they have the security of the shelter, which makes them feel relaxed. When they are hungry they come out more and sort of wave at me to get my attention, a thing they would never do in the wild, as there is no human with mice coming around to feed them. It is fascinating how they adapt to captivity. With as big a "box" as possible and interesting things in it, they seem happy. I wish I could just let them roam free but they don't come when I call them! Heere, Snakey Snakey Snakey...LOL! ----- Bob
