Looks great! Make sure you have humidity and heat at 80/80. ;) Is the lid a locking lid? You will want one of those...hermits are strong! I see a light in the second picture. Be careful not to set that on the plastic - it will melt it. :)

Yes it is a locking lid, and no the lamp isn't on the plastic directly, I cut a rectangular hole and sealed it with mesh screening to allow airflow :)

Great! :)

Edit: When not using the light, I would close that airflow vent to keep humidity and heat in. Changing the food once daily is enough oxygen exchange for them.
