    give you're ackie proper husbandry with proper dirt for burrowing and you won't need to soak. i would think, even if you did live in dry conditions, you would still make sure you provided proper husbandry for any animal.

    I don't know how PE house theirs.... I know mine are housed right and doing well. High altitude can have an impact on things. I think a lot of skin issues are from using play sand etc.

    I wouldn't recommend that crap for any lizard, I wouldn't even get it for kids! It's the worst substrate anyone could use IMO.

    Local dirt, it compacts when it has been wet down and allowed to dry.
