Well I have certainly heard a lot of discouragement, but had my heart set on getting one anyhow. I did however hear from some people who sucessfully kept them.

I ended up getting a captive bred male that I am guessing is a few years old and already feeding. He is almost 3 ft long. He doesn't mind me handling him and seems to be okay thus far.

I am taking him to the vet this weekend for a check up and a fecal. I ordered him some silk worms, and horn worms and have been feeding him 3/4 inch crickets.

Hopefully I will be lucky. I sure do like him an awful lot, and would hate to lose him.
