Default Suggestions Welcome!

I scored a great deal on a used Exo-terra terrarium for Luna. It's 25x18 so it meets the minimum floor space and is an upgrade from the kaytee rat cage. I'm sure she'll outgrow it at some point but for $20 I had to grab it before someone else did! I don't love tank style cages but I do love the double doors that open outward for easy access. I'm just looking for any suggestions to improve or offer more enrichment in the space I have. She has a wheel, bendy bridge, driftwood, tube, hidey house and hanging kabob thing, plus some various chews. TIA!

That's an amazing deal for a cage that size!Even if she does outgrow it as a permanent cage it isn't like you couldn't reuse it for other things anyways

As for extra enrichment,try things like foraging toys which you can easily make yourself.You could also add different pieces of wood,extra hiding spots,or for an easy DIY you can make a small platform using a piece of safe wood and wooden dowels and just glue that together.

Just be creative and think in terms of natural behaviors that can be expressed through different things like burrowing,digging,chewing,foraging,etc!
