[QUOTE="ArvadaLanee, post: 66912, member: 4315"] Well, I think I have finally decided on what I am getting for her substrate. I was going to order that eco earth, and also some jungle mix, and use the eco earth through out most of the enclosure, but have a patch of jungle mix where her water dish will go, and maybe a little moss. That way she can have mostly dry space, but if she keeps wanting moisture the way she has been, she will have a little area that is a bit more moist without being swampy. Now I am just trying to decide if I should keep the log hide in there or not, because she doesn't seem to use it, and it takes up a lot of space. I was thinking of replacing it with a piece of slate rock, or maybe a piece of driftwood. I might get her a few more plants or decorations, but I'm trying to keep in mind that she and I will have to both be able to find prey items in there, so nothing too crazy. There are some really cute, very tiny, fairy garden decorations I was considering using. I can't imagine how they could be harmful to her, as many of them say they are safe for reptiles and fish. They're just some things like tiny little mushrooms, or itty bitty ladybugs. I thought it might be cute to use a few, but I'm not quite sure yet. The most important part, I think, will be getting some good substrate in there. [/QUOTE]
