You don't need a UV bulb for weeks, I wouldn't use one for at least 3 weeks. It can cause eye damage to neonates. Just use regular incandescent bulbs to achieve proper temps, which should be about 80-82F..

ChamLB, Sorry for not replying, Yes my kids and wife have seen them eat the fruit flies and they are very active but now I have to upgrade their set since now I have 3 babies and 2 on the way to be placed with them. I am still searching for pin head size crickets, I will go to Rainbow meal worms in Compton shortly. Thank you for your concern. they seem to be doing great. but I must injured one of the babies skin eye when hatching because it was hatching on bottom of the medium and thought it might of suffocated so I tried ripping the egg a little and never noticed that I got a piece of the baby skin, but now he is running up and down. I hope his skin will heal, even doh I feel so guilty and bad that I did that. I am not touching them for nothing anymore until they are completely out of the egg.

Thanks I had to upgrade because I have 4 now and now 2 more getting out of the egg. I have them out in a shaded patio where its warm and sunny day in California.
