I have fed it dandilion greens romaine greens and squash as this is what the site says to feed it, I have coconut bedding down as substrate heat is 85 on warm side w 75% humidity and 77 degrees on coolside w 55% humidity so now what? lol i have hide boxes on both cool and warm sides and a water bowl( deep lid off a tupperware container)any info on these kinds of torts would be great the site states they are very timid which is a bad thing in a house with 5 children ages 3-10 for now it is in a 45 gallon rubbermaid tub in my bedroom help!!!!
