I keep an ornate, and he is awesome. I've had him for 2 1/2 years and haven't fed him one insect. I feed him collards everyday with the occasional piece of kale, some spring mix, and some shredded carrots. I dust twice a week with vitamins and minerals. I keep a basking spot of 120-130 with a zilla mini halogen dome that uses 25 watt mini halogen heat bulb. I also keep a "24" reptisun 10.0 uvb bulb on. At night i don't give any heat because my house usually stays 75F & up(you can keep a uth for night if your house is cold).I keep mine on newspaper for easy cleaning and don't keep a water dish in the cage because they get hydration from the greens and veggies. If you get one, I also would suggest holding yours often so it doesn't spazz out like mine. I would look into ornates if I were you because they have crazy colors. Oh yeah and I feed lentils too.
