[QUOTE="kormath, post: 116829, member: 4199"] You'll want the width of the enclosure at least twice the leg span of the T, to give it room to grow so you don't have to rehouse it and stress it out as often. A hide is a must for all T's, let them use their flight instinct instead of the fight instinct ;) I'd go with dry substrate for that size, and just a water dish for humidity and you'll be set. They like to burrow a bit, at that size mostly for premolt from my experience, so a couple inches of substrate would be good. [/QUOTE]
