Hi Si,
The Jumping Vipers are really easy to look after. I have them on eco-earth substrate, I do not spray them, but the eco-earth seems to keep the humidity up very high. They have two medium water bowls in their viv, and they go to them and drink quite often, and they will sit in them when they are about to shed their skin.They also eat very well, taking two mice every time, (about every 10 days).
All the best,
Brian.

ah thats interesting you say that Brian, I was gonna ask a question along those lines the other day.

About different substrates because you always see people using bark and aspen, but I noticed in venomous snakes in the terranium he talks alot about different substrates, clay and other things, do you use any other different types of substrate?
