I pick up my little one tomorrow. He or She is about baseball size. I have done alot of research prior but I really would like some advice on diet and habitats do's and dont's, any helpful info is also welcomed. I want to feed as healthy and natural a diet as possible and am planning on doing a live habitat set up.
Thanks in advance for advice

If you didn't do your research on this forum than start there in the RF section.
A hatching needs a closed chamber enclosure with high humidity, 80%. The top layer needs to be dry while bottom is very damp. All lights and heat needs to be within the chamber to hold the humidity.
Post a pic of your enclosure and we can help you get it right before your little one arrives.
Have it up and running now so you know by tomorrow that temps and humidity are correct.
