Behaviour & Compatibility

House alone. Check every door, vent and cable opening for escape gaps. Support the body when handling and leave at least 48 hours after feeding.

Feeding & Nutrition

Feed appropriately sized, fully thawed whole rodents. Juveniles typically feed every 5–7 days; adults generally every 10–14 days, adjusted to size and body condition. Confirm the established schedule with the team. Whole prey should not routinely be calcium-dusted. Fresh water must always be available.

Routine Care

Check temperatures, humidity, appetite and behaviour daily. Replace drinking water and remove waste promptly. Clean bowls and contaminated furnishings regularly; monitor weight and shedding. Arrange advice from an exotics vet for persistent changes in appetite, breathing or movement.

Important Before Buying

Confirm the supplied animal’s current size and feeding routine, and have its enclosure ready before collection.
