Keep in mind he will want to burrow - you'll probably notice him dig at his substrate even if it's something he will never make a dent in - I don't know what the best sub is - but people recommend potting soil (be careful for stuff w/ additives) and even finding ideal soil in the wild (which would get baked)

F/T mice should be adequate - maybe dust w/ your favorite vitamins occasionally - maybe he'll prefer live - they sure seem to enjoy the chase...
