I decided i wanted to start keeping ball pythons earlier this year. I did a lot or research and long story short i got four ball pythons today! They are absolutely beautiful, but i'm concerned about my current setup. Im using a Animal Plastics rack with a herpstat and sterilite tubs. They have hides and water bowls as well. The females are all doing fairly well, but my male is really irritated. While i was unpacking them this morning he was the only aggresive one. He hissed and struck at me twice. I expected that! The problem is that throught the rest of day he's been very irriatable. staying in an aggresive posture and curling up when i walk by. He even stuck at the tub when i was in his view. My rack is off the floor next to my desk. i spend most of my time here. I'm worried my daily activity will bother him. Although it doesn't seem to bother the others. Any help on how to tame him down a bit? He was last fed almost a week ago too. If that helps. I will take any and all advice you can offer. I'm new to BPs. I really want to be a good keeper and make sure my animals are healthy.
