There are some that require specific needs though too. But with an LP its pretty simple, if you purchase one as a sling (like I did) I keep mine in a medium kritter keeper with 3 inches of substrate-this is a terrestrial species so it loves to dig tunnels and borrows.  I provided a hollow log and built that into the substrate to make a little retreat cave for him/her, and since it's big enough to drink from a dish I put a small bottle cap in there with water in it for him/her to drink from.  Of course when it grows more and more you have to transfer into bigger enclosures but other than that they are easy.  I give my crickets right now since mine is still a sling, but their diet has a lot of variety, meal worms, roaches, occasional pinky mouse.  Stuff like that. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> But I am sure whatever T you decide to get you will love!</p></blockquote><p></p>
