My reference was the reptile guy at the pet store but another person who replied said "2" also so I'll believe you guys. I'd like some other advice. I sorta want to keep it inside because it's so tiny. Do I really need a light? Also what should I put on the bottom of the container - right now I'm just using leaves and grass and keeping it moist with a mister when it looks dry. I was gonna get some staghnum (sp) moss - I read that it holds moisture real well and they like to hide in it. I got some calcium and mealworms and even a few crickets but I was told she/he probably won't eat for a while after eating a large worm last night. Any advice is appreciated. This forum has been informative too. Thanks!!!

:What is your reference? The 2002-2003 FL Hunting Regulations specify 2.
