OBT sling moisture

[adaviscox]

Hi there.
I upgrade my obt sling enclosure last night and added some moss at one end of the enclosure.
I know these are dry T's though but I've read that slings like the moisture.
Shall I keep it in or remove it and lightly spray?

Any advice appreciated

Additional moisture sources are always a good idea with slings, even OBTs, as long as they have the option to chose the level of moisture they want to in addition to having a water dish filled with clean water at all times.

How large is your sling and how large is the enclosure? P murinus like to burrow...

Here is the new enclosure.
I've got cross ventilation on the ends and also the lid.

Just looks a bit to much moisture in the building up in there.. maybe more ventilation?

Hi would pop the top off and let the enclosure breathe. If you have a kitchen splatter screen you can pop that on top while the lid is off or transfer the T temporarily.

Thank you.
I've put more ventilation on the lid and seems to have made a difference
Thanks.

I keep my OBT(all sizes), on bone dry substrate, with just a dish with water in it. I even let it dry out for a while. Never had a single issue. Many keepers keep them dry with great success and seem to do better with a dry environment.
