I just purchased a stout leg baboon from the pet store and she was in a enclose with shallow sand and no hide :wall:
Anyways, the store didnt have any eco earth in stock so i have to go back and get some next week,so atm she is in an enclosure with about an inch of eco earth. im just wondering if anyone has keept a baboon T in shallow substrate? Can they thrive with a good Hide, or do they acctually need to borrow?
I don't want to stress out the T, but i mean our T rooms etc arnt the natural habitats of these animals and yet they still adapt to our room temps, humidity,noises etc... so would shallow substrate make that much of a difference to them?
Here she is:
