So, if I was considering a Diamond, living in sydney, i should?

Get a juvie big enough to cope with winter outside here and house it outdoors so it gets varied temps, heaps of uv and natural cycles and feed once a month? will this give it the best hope of survival beyond 7 years being in as natural conditions as possible?
any theory on diet related possibilties with diamonds? seeing as theyd get birds etc in the wild?
could variation of diet be a factor?
I would really love to have a diamond, they are a beautiful python, but Id hate for it to succome after a short life. whats the record age for an ozzy pyth? anyone know?
