You could order those and just place them over the screen to increase humidity. Would be just as easy to go to a glass shop and have them cut it for you out of glass or plexi.

You can certainly make your current cage work

ahhhh! Exactly what i was thinking. and I can drill holes ever for extra ventilation. this is exactly what I've been looking for, i was going to take the top in and get it professionally done but we'll see which is cheaper!

Why do you recommend cypress mulch over coconut husk, both seem to be pretty popular and safe, and hold humidity. the other person on here said aspen bedding... I think If i can get the bottom temp good enough (around that 89-92, and the ambient temp good enough (roughly the same). a spray in the morning and night should be fine with the coconut, yeah?
