Just noticing this topic now, hope it isn't to old. Any way there is a good care sheet on here so you can use that for referance but basically they need a substrate they can burrow into and moss ontop to keep them moist. They are a very hardy animal and seem to do very good in captivity and should be a great pet for a "noob" Provide it with plenty of things to hide under. They are fun to watch eat cause they will stalk and strike prey and shake it around wildly. I read somewhere they got their name from their voracious eating habits. Overall a pretty interesting and easy to care for animal.
