Well, first I'd return the slenders from where they came. Honestly, they may be a little more work than you may want, especially diet wise.

For the Ensatina place about three inches of slightly damp soil in the container. Add some leaf litter and a couple of slabs of bark for cover. You can feed them small crickets, small earth worms and small wax worms. As far as the container being outside, I would recommend against that. Depending on where you live the temps may become too extreme. Even worse, any direct sunlight would heat it up quick. Do you have a garage for the time being? Do you know which subspecies you have?
