    Where are there hide boxes? They need a hide box on each end of the enclosure.

    Also make sure that the hide boxes are cozy enough so that they feel "touched" from all sides.

    Thanks!!!..

    Another question, I see a lot people say they keep a constant temp in there enclosure and the infrared or Moonlight on 24/7. But I read a lot about not doing that.. like this:

    No special lighting required. Fluorescent bulbs are more cost effective and run cooler than incandescent bulbs, and you eliminate the possibility of thermal burns. Light should be on 10 - 12 hours daily.

    cage temperature should stay at 77-90F during the day. You can turn off the basking light and drop the temperature to 68-75F at night. These animals are active at night, so no special lighting is required.

    No lower then 75 any time. I wouldnt even go that low. I'd go 78 at the VERY lowest.

    Your temps should never go that low. 80-83 on one side and 90-93 on the other. All day all night, 24/7, it should never change from that period.

    Hope this helps.
