>>Sonya, how critical do you think the shoebox set-up with the damp moss is? I've currently got each baby in a deli cup with paper towel. When you say that you watch them come out of cover to hunt, are you saying that each had a hide box or are you simply referring to the moss?

I think the moss is the critical point, less so the room to move around. Constant cover seems key. I had had mine on newspaper with hides and a bowl. When I switched to moss or Carefresh, fluff stuff once you aren't as worried about humidity, the babies ate next offering. I tend to keep moss in there for a couple months since then it is easy to keep them humid.

I'm not mean. You're just a sissy.
