How much moisture is too much moisture? No resource has told me specifically how much to spray the enclosure, just 'frequently'. To me frequently could mean anything from once or twice a day to once every 3 days which leaves a 50% chance for making huge mistakes.

I saw the different sorts of plastic used as enclosures, theres a place I can look immediately actually (a thrift store called Molly Mutt that donates its earnings to animal welfare). I'm fixing to wait half a month before moving the specimen however because I don't like to arrange the enclosure (especially a territorial arboreal type) too much and by than I'll have some funds to get cricket breeding enclosures (some cheap ones, they're already laying eggs and I transplanted lord knows how many to new tupperwares. Now I'm waiting on the hatchlings. For now this is just an experiment that might end up feeding Pumpkinhead lots of pinheads. Shes also gonna have some coconut fiber (I'll buy a new batch for all my nids) to layer over jungle mix (isn't that stuff kind of wet?)

She's already attacking medium crickets headfirst.
