ok, so the rubbermaids installed in each end of the enclosure is full of 16 inches of packed down dirt, clumps in my hands and breaks apart when i put my finger in it. he has stayed in the cool end since i put him in there, after he "explored", and has also already eaten in this enclosure. i used the rubbermaids instead of a trough due to the terrible availability of them around my area, as soon as i find one i will fit it to the enclosure. i have read that you have bred black throats before? is this true? how much dirt did you supply for them? thanks
