The humidity is in excess of 90% in her burrow, look into biactive enclosures, most people have a great deal of success with higher temperatures and natural cages. Plus, the burrows remain cool and humid just like the wild. Keep in mind the basking spot in the rock under the lights, the air temperature is in the 90s on the hot end. I've kept all three of my geckos like this or in similar enclosure for close to 6 years and this is the first time anything has happened. I get where you're coming from but I would rather a healthy gecko to a tame gecko any day. There's a reason reptiles in the wild can move so fast, and personally I believe it is from the temperatures they are exposed to. If any of my animals got out of their cage the likely hood of me being able to catch it would be close to zero
