You hit the nail on the head T. They're just young and insecure. I'm sure you'll see more of them as they grow. I rarely see my young Bredli or the new jungle mutt. I still have to lift their hides to feed them :mad:. I got the Bredli in early March and the mutt 2 weeks ago. Contrast that with my 2014 Coastal and 2015 male JCP who are both out perching almost every night. They've both been with me since last September. It's fun watching them grow but sometimes it's frustrating too because you want to see more of them :).

My little girl (weighed her yesterday - 62 gms) is out most of the time, usually curled up by her rock or the fake greenery. When it gets dark she goes all over the place. She seems to like being out but hangs pretty close to me. She had a really good shed and eats quite well (not as crazy as the boa but that's ok). She actually ate for the first time off of the tongs last week. Unlike the boa, who almost pulls you into his enclosure, she gently grabbed her food and pulled it into her hide.

Not seeing the pictures. [emoji45]

I can see them when I go through the threads and I see them in your quote. Wonder if I'm copying the wrong URL for my pics.
Is this better?http://ball-pythons.net/gallery/file.../6/sheila5.jpghttp://ball-pythons.net/gallery/file...havingacup.jpg

I see them now and she is very nice. Thanks.

I wouldn't worry about Shag yet, he may be starting his pre-shed phase or just wanting some privacy. He'll be back to hanging out soon. :)

You were right reinz. I should have never doubted it. A couple of days ago his coloring was vibrant and today it's very dull and he is in blue. Hopefully this is the reason and he has not contracted the dreadful ballpythonscullyidous. [emoji12]

Good deal, it's always reassuring to know the reasons behind their behavior:)

Oh yes he is most definitely in blue.. I always love it when they shed. It's exciting to see them afterwards and you know they are growing.
