I keep mine by clutch in the large round plastic clear containers (about 6" in
diameter) sold by Superior Enterprise in Southern CA. I put blue shop towels on
the bottom, then I cut a toilet paper roll in 1/2, that is their house. I put a
few strips on top of that so they can disappear if they want. For moisture I
spray the sides of the container when feeding. I feed hatchlings 2 week old
crickets or very soft small mealworms every day. When they first hatch give
them a day to finish absorbing nutrients supplied from their egg. The second
day try feeding a few crix. If they don't take them remove them and try again
the next day. In about three weeks they will eat three week old crickets. In
about a month I separate them into their own containers. That's about it!
Good luck,
Julie B.
