You are to be applauded for such efforts. It seems that many of us get so caught up in the challenge of keeping exotic species; we tend to forget the amazing variability residing within our own backyards and how little we actually know, regarding the successful captive husbandry of such.
I always grin whenever I see a fledgling biology student doing double takes, when he / she discover their first actual herpetology class covers little more than native species and the new outlook they entail, once the class and lab has been completed.

Best regards,
