set the temp to 80 no need to drop at night at all.

cool floresent light no hot spotlight needed.

put the normal live pinky on the clean floor of the enclosure.

leave it alone cover the cage with paper so to minimize distractions.

do not over mist mine grow up fine never ever being misted.

but the humidity is 75 -80%

A large water dish.

A hide box is mandatory for a mamba they need to hide now and then.

Enclosure size is important must be long enough for the little bugger to lay out.



the only weird thing is why did it take 10 days to get to you from SA?

3 days is too long for me since a jet takes only hours to get here.

also you might need to let us know what dealer

sold it to you so we will be advised.



if you get it eating it will grow up to be much tamer than a adult wild caught polylepis.

ask snakes and stuff to verify this!

he has seen junior the tame mamba!

later

good luck
