Is there anything wrong with my E. murinus enclosure?

My E murinus (now MM) built a throne of a turret. Beautiful. As a juvenile, I gave him 7” of substrate with a cork bark entrance to a pre-started burrow and then added oak leaves. They love these. I tossed some in and when he’d used them all, I tossed in a few more…and then again. I stopped when he stopped using them all. IMG_2944.jpeg IMG_2940.jpeg

I'd certainly like to know the secret. I've done some searching but can't seem to find any specific information about a setup that encourages this behavior.

Update! I’ve moved Shalltear into a large Kritter Keeper with seven inches of substrate and a premade burrow as recommended. She’s inside it now :D
The substrate is a mix of topsoil, coco fiber, and jungle mix, and is nice and damp. IMG_9326.jpeg

If you want a larger water dish, go to 5 Guys near the ketchup station. They have small deli cups that are free. These work so good for larger T's.

Nice improvements!

I’m not sure if she needs a water dish anyway, considering I’ll be showering the substrate with water anyway. I’ll keep it in there anyway, but I don’t think I need a bigger one.
