Jeweled Lacerta Tips?

Hi there,

Any experienced Jeweled Lacerta keepers willing to give some tips/advice to someone a bit new to the species?

I'll be receiving a young subadult male tomorrow evening. I plan to set him up in a 24 x 18 x 18 bioactive for the first year, as he is pretty small right now. Then move him into a 36 x 18 x 18 later on. I plan to have his diet mostly consist of night crawlers, superworms, soft-bodied worms, Repashy Grub Pie, & grain-free canned dog food. I'll offer mango, dandelion, banana and other insects as well. I want to look into the Omni-gold diets too. Lots of variety.

Cage will be filled with hiding spots. I plan to use Reptisoil, which is a blend of soil, sand, carbon and peat moss, as a main substrate. Lots of cork bark, sandblasted grapevine, and live plants.

Anything I should revise/change?
