They really don't need much floor space. Not as much as you'd think. And they're quite happy to simply slither over the top of their hides if they want to stretch out a little.
You can make hides out of inexpensive plastic boxes like rubbermaid or even plastic plant-pots. Those things are easily cleaned when they're pooped in. Just wipe down...disinfect, and replace. And inexpensive enough that you can have more than two identical ones...and just switch 'em out for cleaning as needed.
They really like hides that are very snug and tight. Later today, I plan to post a little story and some pictures on that very subject.![]()
And do be prepared for him to just be a "hermit." It's what they do.
