I'm pretty sure they don't, but hopefully someone will come along later to confirm this

danny said on your last thread they are fine to keep outside all winter nut they might not eat as much if u wish to keep them inside build a table get a spot lamp and uv strip light 10.0 give them lots of hides and a good substrate (make sure it does not dry out)
