I just bought two of these 7" and 9" long but don't find much information about captive care before or after I purchased. If someone out there that has been keeping and could share what their experience has been it would be appreciated. Now I'm keeping them in my snake room at 76 degrees with a heat strip for a warm spot, in leaf mulch, with a tub of water it can fit in in a large sweater box. What are your reccomendations for cage design, temps., lights (UVA/UVB?, feeding (what and schedule?), substrate. Do they need a light source if they're nocturnal? Any info. for captive sucess will be appreciated.
