these guys are cool! i had a pair for about 3 years before i let them go. i live in south-east PA and i found them in my yard. they had babies, about 15 if i remember correctly! i kept the pair in a 20 gal. long with no heat, only room temp. i used cypress mulch as a substrate and kept it damp but not wet. they had 3 hide spots;1 cork bark slab that i didn't mist or wet underneath(dry hide spot), another cork bark slab that i did spray under(wet hide spot), and a moist hide box full of sphagnum moss(this is where i found the babys). i fed them worms. i tried slugs, crickets and meal morms, but they only ate worms. be careful not to let them dry out! the babys were only about an inch long and i couldn't feed them so, i let them all go. have fun!
