mouse tails,i assume you mean voluntarily?if so that's a great sign.....see if you can get some really small pinky mice for it,since it's game for eating rodent prey.it would almost certainly also eat some skinks or other small lizards,but that prey can be parasite-laiden and it may not go back to warm blooded prey,which is by far the easiest to get for it.give it a hide box,don't handle it(they aren't much for that anyway usually),and maybe give it a cup of moist sphagnum moss to stay moist in......one question-where's it from,what state/county?it looks a little similar to some northeast nc/se va specimens i've seen....?
