I have no experience with them, but I know they average around 10 inches in length and eat mainly earthworms.

Release it. I havn't had good luck with them in general and I have been keeping them since I was 4. All I use them for now are feeders. They generally just don't do that well in captivity.

I maintained a neonate for many months on pieces of small earthworms.
