I've been looking at these too and can't find much info aswell. They look awesome don't they, I was nearly tempted a little while ago by the Brachistosternus castroi yellow form when they were in stock.

I'd guess cool cause of Chile species and probably mainly sand with abit of coco due to the light colour of them.

Sweet! Look forward to seeing the pics, you'll probably tempt me to get one of those Brachistosternus. I think you're better off with that then the B. keyserlingi's because they were under small with a pic of an adult covered in babies so I reckon they're literally babies.

I've mostly read to keep them dry so I've kept mine dry with a tiny water dish and alls been well so far but I couldn't tell you an exact humidity.

Congrats!
All the species need it very dry on well compacted(wet down press and let dry thoroughly) make sure there is no water or they will get moldy and die.You can put a cap of water once a week in the enclosure over night but as long as they are fed well hydrated prey then the cap is unnecessary.Temps should be fairly low(room temp is fine)
