Alduin's Corner.

So this will be a progression thread for my sterling Ball python, Alduin Jörmungandr.

Here are his stats so far.

Name: Alduin Jörmungandr
Age: Roughly 2-3 months. Have to look back on my records. 😑
Gender: male
Weight: 158g
Length: unknown for now
Prey item: rat pups

He's calm down since first arriving at home a week ago. Allowed me to take him out to snuggle today. I fed him on Monday and he readily took his first meal since he got home with absolutely no problems! 😄

I had him out for a bit today and decided to take a few not very great pictures of him. He doesn't hiss or strike at me but he is deathly afraid of my camera. Lol

Camera shy! He's so adorable!! 😍

nice BP! congrats! he's got beautiful faded blushing.

Good looking snake!

I love the hearts.

Thanks very much. Those pictures really don't do him any justice so I will be taking some tomorrow or so. Lol maybe I'll create a light box just for his pictures.

Anyway, I noticed he has a tiny dent in his eye. I don't really know how he got that since his humidity fluctuates between the 50-60s. Either way, I switched out his smaller water bowl to a larger one and saw the humidity rise to 66%. Hopefully this is OK. He isn't shedding yet but he might be soon, pink belly and all. I think this might be around the time he shed last time too...

First time with the light box method. I think it came out OK but I'll playing around with the lighting.

With flash. This is a no go for next time.

Just a bit of periscoping. He didn't do it for too long but it was cute to capture on camera. I think he was curious about the tv when he did this. 😍

Fed Alduin today and he took his f/t rat like nothing! His third feeding with me and I am glad he is doing great! His rats, however, smell really gross. Well maybe just gross to my standards. Lol also, I found that boxes make excellent temporary hides if your bp decided to paint his other one in poop. 💩

Nom!

Still haven't been able to get a picture of him 'yawning' but maybe I will someday. I have 25+ years.

The yawns will come for sure! :)

Like I can see them just not capture them. I may need to invest into a better camera this upcoming cyber monday. I was so glad he didn't flinch when I had my camera out (he usually does).

Alduin almost shed in one piece! It was just the very very tip of his tail that needed a tiny bit of a soak. But Woot!

Here is a Halloween photo of him.
