📏Enclosure Size:
Medium terrestrial setup is best. A single adult needs around 5-10 litre horizontal enclosure, with plenty of floor space for roaming and burrowing, plus rocky features to mimic its natural habitat.

🌡️Temperature:
Maintain 24–28 °C with a gentle gradient. Nighttime drops to around 21°C are acceptable. Avoid prolonged exposure below 20 °C.

💧Humidity:
Prefers moderate humidity (60%) with slightly drier surface layers. Provide a localized humid retreat, but avoid waterlogging the enclosure. Mist lightly once or twice a week..

🌱Substrate:
Deep, compactable substrate for burrowing.
A mix of coco fibre, clay, and soil works well to hold stable tunnels.

⏰Feeding schedule:
Feed every 2 weeks. Offer appropriately sized prey such as crickets, roaches, or locusts. Adults may skip meals, so remove uneaten prey after 24 hours.

🥣Water Source:
Provide a shallow water dish with fresh water. Also, mist surfaces lightly to allow drinking droplets, as they may prefer this.

🍃Ventilation
Good cross-ventilation is necessary to prevent mold, especially with deeper substrates. A mesh or ventilated lid works well, but avoid excessive airflow that dries out burrows.

🙈Hides:
Essential to provide deep substrate for burrow construction. You can also add flat rocks, cork bark, or artificial caves to simulate natural rocky crevices and ground litter shelters.
