i know they need a high moisture retention in their substrate... the potting soil i use eventually dries up, and once it does you can't keep it moist without just pouring water all over the cage (and then i worry about mites/gnats/mold).
would adding green moss (sold at pet stores as bedding) or peat moss to potting soil (50/50 mix) be an effective way to keep the soil moist? i can't find vermaculite, so it's not really an option.
