OK
My little buddy is almost here!
Ordered it yesterday from Jeanne at Strictly Reptiles (a true pleasure to deal with!)
FedEx tracking says it should be here in the next couple hours.
Now I have its big tank
BUT
MANY MANY mixed opinions on using the perm tank or a small temp enclosure.
ANYWAY
I have to go to PetSmart later to get a hermit crab heater, med carrier & a light for night.
(already have sprayer, tongs, plantation soil) but can't go till about 5 pm as we have workers
at the house. I was thinking of putting him in a 6 cup rubbermaid container with some plantation
soil till then and covering the top with saran wrap (some holes for air) and putting the 50 w light
about a foot above the container? Will this work or any better suggestions?
What else do I need? Im likely getting one of those scoops for picking him up and using my
hands as little as possible.
Should I feed him tonight or wait till tomorrow?
I was thinking I could grab some nightcrawlers perhaps? (I know WalMart sells them)
