i got him a mesh cage at first,put a small tree in it,as well as a heat rock.We were putting in 10+ crickets dusted with calcium powder a day,and he would eat them all,we also tried mealworms,but we stopped because we read on here that we shouldn't.We put lettus in the food dish,as well as carrots.We have stopped the lettus,and put in canned green beans.We just got a zilla uv light,and a clamp lamp(I use a regular basking bulb in the day,and a red one at night).We also bought a log,and an artificial rock.Finally,it is 95 degrees on the warm side,and 76 on the cool side.I put in a stuffed animal in the cool side.He has shed once,and is about a month old,as well as 4 inches long.I handle him at least once a day
