it is not a "problem" it is just that YOU need to learn how to work with the dirt. there are many subtle aspects to that. you need to first find a good soil or mix that works well. you need to find what kind of water balance it has, and how to manipulate the setup for more or less moisture. over the course of a few weeks, you will get a better handle on how exactly it works, and be able to better prepare it for your animal. if you go ahead and put the Uro in the first day, the animal may suffer while you tinker with the details.



5 years later, and you will STILL find yourself learning about soils and substrates, i do
