Hi and Welcome You may want to check out the caresheet forum for the bp's and the caging forum for setting up your viv properly. You should have 2 idebtical hides on the warm and cool side, and your temps on the warm side should be at 92, cool side 85. You can buy a digital thermometer (Accurite) at Walmart for about $12. This will give you a reading of your warm and cool side and your humidity. You want your humidity when not in shed to stay at 50%...when in shed bump to 60%-70%. What kind of subtrate are you using. What are you using for heating? The best way to heat is using a UTH connected to a thermostat or flexwatt connected to a thermostat so that your heat is constantly at the 92 degrees. As for handling you need to let him acclimate for atleast a week with no handling and only disturbing to do any spot cleaning of the viv as needed.
If I have missed anything I am sure that one of the more experieced owners will chip in here
Good luck with Sarge
