i dont understand, female stays under the dry hide ( see she's really dull tonight so needing a shed) male stays in my 6qt steralite tote with hole in it filled with moss (humid hide), the female was bred before i got her but i dont think she's gravid but she is quite heavy, i can't get a look at her belly long enough to tell though or get a picture but i felt around as best i can and didn't feel anything in there...

my question and concerns are, the male had pieces of shed still stuck to him (shed before i got him) belly seems always nice and wet but back doesn't.. is the humid hide not humid? and the female stays on the tiles/hides all the time, i made a makeshift himid hide for her on the warm side under her fav. hide with a wet paper towell and put her hide over it, i know i'll have to mist this atleast every day but she wont go in anything else, and i dont want her to have a bad shed... do leo's go thru a pre lay shed like snakes? and is it good for my male to be in that humid hide all the time? and my female to never go in it? like i'll put her in it and she'll run right out. i've used that eco brick before, but my problem is it molds sooo quick and has a very strong , not cedar but that kind of scent to it, and wonder if that's ok just mist it down or what?

i'm not a newbie but never had one with these types of problems before, used to keep my old female in that stuff and was never a problem.
