New member with new snake

I recently acquired a Turks and Caicos Island pygmy boa. This is the smallest boa in the world. A good length is 14 in. Mine is 12 in.
A big switch from my red tail I had for over 18 years and was 10 ft.
It appears his snake is not a commonly kept snake. There isn't a lot of info regarding this snake. Mine is very easy to handle and doesn't get at all defensive when approached or handled.
Eats lizards like crazy...
Anyone with any information experience or tips?
Thx
