I just had a clutch hatch, what are the recommended steps?

tupper enclosures work well because it provides them with security and keeps the humidity in well. I use newspaper as a substrate because it's cheap and easy to keep clean/change. Temp's should be in the low 80's daytime and high 70's for nighttime lows. I use heat tape to give them something to lay on for heat if the ambient temp's are not warm enough for them. I would allow them to shed before offering fuzzy mice. They don't seem to like pinkies even for the first meal. The fuzzy may seem too big but they can handle it. Hope this gives you some insight and at least a start. Good luck and congratulations on your clutch. Frank Kincade.
