Ok Savannah rundown. Savannah's eat meat! Cricket's when little, mice when bigger. Substrate use dirt or dried out bed-a-beast. Temps should be around 100 to 120 for a basking spot and about 75 or higher on the cool end. Night time temps can drop to 65 to 70 Humidity 0% is probably best but normal house humidity is fine. Feeding schedule for baby's daily, for adults every other day. Also recommend a UV light for this guy but several top breeder's say they do fine without it!

Yeah that would be fine! Trust me they can dig through just about anything! Ever seen the nail's on one of these puppy's? Just make sure the potting soil doesn't have the styrofoam peices in it.
