I know Dan S. from Crotalus & Co. had a pretty good care sheet for them...you might want to check with him...

They're not difficult to care for...Temps in the mid 80's on the warm end, low 70's on the cool...I used to keep mine on aspen shavings, hidespot and a water dish...adult mouse once a week or so...

I grew up in northern Ca and alays enjoyed keeping these guys...Be careful though...they have a nasty bite! (Never been bitten myself...just heard stories and seen pics...YIKES!)
