Some of mine even refuse to touch it, especially some of my burrowers. If they're arboreal then it would work out, all of mine have sphagnum moss. My terrestrials don't. They can't dig in it. Even if you add a layer of moss and top it off with substrate, make it a small layer of moss. I ran out of substrate, and my car died recently. I had an emergency enclosure cleaning and had to use sphagnum moss for my b.smithi, and she has not come down from the corner since.</p></blockquote><p></p>
