baby vipers

how does everyone raise theirs i.e. substrate/temps/humidity as ive heard there very difficult!!!

I don't have any yet but what I have planned is to have them on shelf lines (w/ no holes) for substrate, and will be feeding minimeal worms (suggested to me by a breeder near me) Hope this helps

the main breederi know in the UKwont give me her tips as it would be competition but she said that most substrates dont work and that they are very very delicate

I use paper towel for the first month, keep them with a warm side of 85, cool of 72 ish. I mist once a week. After one month I switch to fine sand.

They are not that hard at all. The first 3 to 4 weeks we keep them on paper towel and afterwards they go on normal sand.
I just feed the the smallest crickets, but they hardly eat the first week.
Make sure they have an hiding place and don't put them in a large container, I use an empty cricket box. This I put about a quarter on a heating mat with a thermostat and set it to 30 degrees.
