Keep them very humid, but not in constant contact with wetness. You will probably need to spray them a couple of times a week to get them to drink, and they must stay well hydrated (think of them more like amphibians). Feed infrequently, as they have a slow metabolism. Also good to set up a rain chamber and at least once per month let them get rained on with luke-warm water for a while (30 minutes) to stimulate defecation. Actually not a great beginners tree viper, so do your research and don't neglect hydration!
