Should you use UV lights? Definitely!! Your cage may be too big initially for a baby, so be ready to either use a smaller one or divide it into a smaller section to help him hunt for a while. Handling will be up to the cham. They are quite individual about how much they tolerate. It doesn't always have much to do with how they are raised...some will be pissy and some won't. As for good info sources, here are good ones:

I would not suggest getting a tiny baby. They are trickier to feed and acclimate. Try to find an older juvenile, say 4 months.
