    hognose bio set up!
    heres my brand new bioactive hognose set up! i ended up getting powder blue and powder orange isos. gonna eventually get springtails aswell! im going to wait a few days before putting the hog in there probably to let the humidity and temps even themselves out https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b1cee478cb.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5488679886.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...563b21478c.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ea91fcd63d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...31a67f4af0.jpg

    if im being honest i dont know yet, the vendor i got them from at a show recommended them to me and he said their name a few times and it slipped my mind, but i emailed him and asked again. otherwise i know he gave me some ball moss that i threw in there!

    yes, they are. but there’s different species that are bigger/smaller and are interested in eating different things. theyre what make it bioactive, they breakdown all the waste created and return it back to the soil

    eventually when I get my blood boa I plan on making a bioactive setup, but I have heard it takes awhile before it is fully functional

    only about a month or so being that its not an animal that will eat the CUC, alls it takes to maintain is some salad/veggie scraps to feed them until they get goin, theres a couple really good helpful facebook groups that i went to: Reptile and Amphibians bioactive setups and the other one is Advancing Herpetological Husbandry. you could actually start the enclosure now and itll be ready for whenever you get your snake.
