Do i need moss?

Postby bella3 » Mon Jul 23, 2012 1:35 pm

Hello everyone!
I have not been very active on here lately, mostly because in the last few weeks I have been getting ready for my baby Northern BTS that I am getting tomorrow! I am so excited, and have pretty much everything ready.
I just had a question. Do you think that I should have a moist hide/moss in the tank? I do have some moss, but I wasn't sure if I needed it/should use it or not.
Thank you, and as soon as I get my baby I will post pictures of him/her and his/her enclosure.

It won't hurt at all to have a moist hide. But I wouldn't look at it as a neccessity unless your BTS starts having a consistently hard time with shedding.
