    Is my BP going to be stressed out after I move him into a new tank?
    I'm going after work today to get a new tank for my snake because I have him in a 10 gallon which is kinda small. But my only concern is if he is going to stress out after I move him later. I've had him for about 1 month and a half now and when I put him in the 10 gallon he didn't seem to be bothered by anything but I wanted to get you guys input.

    Any tips are appreciated, thanks guys! :)

    I moved mine in the beginning and she was fine. It might be a little stressed out, but as long as everything (temps, humidity, appropriate hides, etc) is set up properly it shouldn't be a big deal. Just leave him alone for a bit just like if you were just bringing him home for the first time.

    Oh okay. What about feeding though? I've been feeding him every Monday and Thursday. Which Thursday is tomorrow so should I not feed him tomorrow and wait till Monday again?

    Okay great! Hopefully he eats again tomorrow. He's a good eater so I'm thinking he should be fine to eat.
