Great pics also and keep up the good work with him. :gj:

    Thanks man, ya I've read plenty of stories about various problems with new snakes especially BPs and feeding. I bought him from a very well respected local store which I'm sure helped with a lot of problems with a first reptile. I picked him partly for colour partly for his demeanor. I thought if he was that out going in a store which would be more stressful then private care then he just was more bold then most. As with any animal they each have their own personality. I'm glad he isn't super stressed by moving etc. His home is as good as I know how to make it 48x24x16 with RHP and UTH both on Rancos. I'm still working on tweaking the decor and layout. I tried putting a few fake plants for shade and cover as I read that it might help but he seemed scared by them and would avoid them entirely. That big piece of wood, he used to cross in front of it but when I put some short fake plants he went behind it every time. I've since taken them out and will use them in the other cage.
