Thanks for the advice!
It should be shipped next Monday or Tuesday, so it'll be here Tuesday - Wednesday. Hopefully that'll give me time to setup everything. I'm getting supplies to make my first batch of skink chow. I'm planning on using a high quality dog food (EVO 95% beef), frozen ground turkey, egg, and veggies (kale, carrots, squash, apple). I've never been so excited to use my food processor lol.

What substrate mix do you use for yours? I think I might use cypres mulch and spaghnum moss.. I've never bought them in bulk before, but people recommended buying them from home depot.

Sorry, just saw this. For mine I actually use dirt (topsoil), sand, and peat moss. You can get it all from HD, just make sure there are no additives like manuer, fertalizer etc. The Peat Moss at HD is organic, for sand I use play sand as it is washed, and the topsoil is basically just fill dirt. From that mix you can go bio-active if you decide to add a cleanup crew. It is more of a natural setup and holds moisture/humidity better than mulch.
