So this would be my first shipped animal usually bought them from stores or shows so questions

First when I let him out the box do I put him right into the box and how long till I feed him?


When should I start handling him I'm used to just let it eat chill for a few days is this ok?


Also some other questions needed answered

I bought a Repti Fogger what side should it be on

Whats a good Humid Hide for him to make is moss a nono or is it ok?

I bought a big deep water bowl is this ok? or is it dangerous

Thanks guys sorry for me being a newbi im used to Desert Lizards not so much Tropical

Take him out of the box and put him in the enclosure. You can feed as soon as you want but he may not eat for a few days. I wouldn't try handling him for a week or two. I would try the repti dogger in the middle and move it if needed. You shouldn't need a humid hide if you have a fogger. A deep water bowl is fine as long as he can get out of it.
