You should have 2 hides for your bp. One on the cool side and one on the warm side. Depending on the size of your bp determines the size of the hide. Do you have a temperature gage in the enclosure. I use and accurite that I bought from Lowes for 12 dollars. It gives you the temp of where you put the probe, the ambient air temp, and the humidity. If you go to the care sheets section you will find all of the info you need for the care of your bp. Congrats on your bp, and welcome!
