Hello tuppence- welcome to the forum.
Bark is fine, but I use a mixture of eco-earth and bark and I find that works well too. Plus you can have live plants in then too. |

They are probably most comfortable in the middle, so that's why they stay there the most.
It is normal to hardly see them- mine only comes out at night when she thinks we've gone to bed |

| i live by a very good breeder, they are`nt for everyone i must admit you MUST do your homework first as with any animal but with these little creatures you have to. they are so cute and they form such strong bonds with thier owners. thier diets can be a bit tricky if you do`nt have access to the right vitamins too but as i said i live by a breeder so i have no problem |

Sounds like too big a job for me- with all these snakes and amphibians in the house I'm busy enough 
It would be great to see some pics of yours though. Not seen many about |

She might not find out you've got one for ages |
