What the heck is he doing?

Yeah that's foam board for security, I do have a digital temp probe on the other side. I wasn't sure (and still am not) what hygrometer to get so I just got that as a temporary.

I had the hides cut with a smaller entry hole but they looked too small so I cut them bigger than his largest part.

I haven't put in my UTH yet because I won't have a thermostat til next week.

For the hides, I got these cheap plastic bins I found at the grocery I figured I could cut them into decent hides. I bought two extra just in case. Here's a pic of them before cutting, how can I make them into better ones?

You will need to move your thermometer probe once you start to use your UTH. When using a UTH the thermometer probe needs to be on the floor of the cage centered on the UTH. The thermostat probe will be sandwiched between the bottom of the tank and the UTH itself.
