I wish I had a pair! They look so much like a dinosaur. How humid do you have to keep them?

90% humidity at least with a large basin for them to soak,underbrush and new zealand moss(its better than any other..its the white spongey kind) and a 5.0 uv strip light for good measure w simply a day and night basking since they are nocturnal and right around 80 degrees is the optimim temp for them.I just wanna warn you they're not very "handleble" animals...very very skittish and stress easy so keep em in a low traffic area.hiding spots and a fogger are neccesary as I discovered it increased the comfortability level a lot.p.s.-they're one of the only reptiles that lay one egg at a time and the mother parents the egg and watches over it and they do better in male female pairs as males will fight and if there are 2 females w 1 male there will be territory issues.hope I could help....they def are the coolest reps I've ever raised n owned
