Allergic to my roborovski Poppy?..

[RoboPoppy]

Thank you!! This is a thing I was wondering about the substrate depth. Because first I was making deep substrate only in a section of terrarium, that is also what was suggested to me. But I see many people here putting deep substrate all over. I would prefer to keep it really deep only in a part of terrarium, since I think that saves more space for shelves and toys? Like 1/3 with 15cm substrate and 2/3 with 7-10cm. Poppy doesn't seam to be doing much burrowing even in deep areas. She does enjoy her tunnels and toys A LOT. Maybe she just doesn't like carefresh to burrow in. The paper substrate is on the way, so will see about that.

Update:

I am happy to say that I was most likely allergic to either some of my house plants (which my friend happily adopted, after I read some of them do tend to make people allergic, where I apparently also had some that even help to clean the air and supposedly catch allergens) or to Poppy's old hemp bedding. I still do always wash m hands after handling her and have air purifier on 24 hours, so in case it was contributing, it is definitely manageable. Which is amazing news for me, i'm still not over how excited I am that I can keep her

That's such good news, I'm really pleased for both of you

That is great news. I suspect the hemp bedding personally - it drove me crazy - just the smell of it made me wheeze!
