I also have a water dish that he drinms out of and I take him out every now and then on sunny days to soak up the sun and play outside. Any tips would be great but just didnt know if I should keep his tank more moist or not than just a water dish.
I hope English is you second language.

Humidity should be about 65-75 during sheds, this could be accomplished through the use of a larger water bowl. or misting your enclosure.

80f? what? you need a cool side and a hot side. those temps should be 91-95 hot 77-80 cool.

Don't handle while in shed, it causes stress.
