Our first Jackson female came to us gravid, and we were hoping that was the case because she started to look so heavy and became inactive. We had her for about 3 months. One morning we saw what we thought was a cricket under the basking light. It was a neonate, it had crawled on the screen to the light. Looking around, we found 7 more. We moved them to a small cage where it would be easy for them to find their food. I put a producing jar of flightless fruit flies in the cage. They all lived in a small ficus. I am not sure if that would be what others would recommend, but they learned quickly to go to the jar. Some mornings they would all be on the rim, or in the jar. I replaced the jar a couple of times. They also went through a few thousand pinhead crickets, tossed in a couple of times a day. They grow at a pretty steady pace. Not what you would call fast, but a noticeable rate. She mated a few weeks later and we were told to expect she would have more babies in a few months, but it was almost a year. Hope that gives you something helpful. I know you will have fun.
I was thinking more of asking him about the housbandry of the babies.
