Yeah should have said plastic lid etc etc,mainly just put something there to rest the food on he can't eat :)
I use the same bark,but mine are fed outside the vivs.
The humidity stays about 50% to 60% in mine without spraying. |

Might give that ago, but when he was young he tried to eat kitchen roll and a mouse all at once, it was a nightmare to get off of him. |

long as the rat/mouse is dry there's not much chance of any substrate being ingested, i feed all mine in the viv an their on aspen or orchid bark.
if you want to put the food on something use a plastic plate, rub lid ect so they don't take the paper down with the food.
a little bit of substrate wont cause a problem, my old royal split a rat an ended up with a huge gob full of aspen an still pooed fine a week or so later |

Hi I just keep a moss box in viv, he never uses it unless he going in to shed,
I dont like offering food on small a bit of paper placed on top of substrate as I have seen what can happen when they strike and rap the food and paper up in one go. |

How's the humidity with using orchid bark? Was thinking of switching to that as I'm struggling to get my humidity above 30 without spraying twice a day! |

Shouldn't be a problem really,Or put down paper on the spot where he's eating. |

Shame seems a waste just to put on garden, only stopped using it as my male royal always fed in separate rub,but he have not fed for 3 months, I tried feeding him in his viv and he have now fed for the last 2 weeks, so I have been keeping him on paper, as a bit worried about him eating the substrate. |
