I bought a pair of Stars from Jackie last month. I have them in a long 95 quart Rubbermaid container. Jackie told me towels are probably the best for babies, it gives them good footing and it's very easy to clean but need to change it often. I went to Costco and bought a 12-pk towels for $12.99 and change the towel every 2 days, works great. He has 3 hatchlings left.
