Am I missing something?

Yes, that's perfectly normal, great looking snake! I have a hatchling and I'm feeding her medium mice already for her 4th and 5th meal since she hatched. It's hard to tell from the photos, how old is your snake and how much does he weigh (in grams)? To me he looks pretty young and pretty small, I'm thinking medium to adult mice.

Hey guys so he still hasn't figured out how to use his hides, he mostly stays on top of them or on some plants tho lol look

I really like him and I know I'm just paranoid, I haven't handled him, I'll just wait for his next feeding day a few days after, anyways I got two identical hides that I'll put in soon to see if that makes a difference

Well Hector, this is a huge mess! Your ball python has an identity problem, he thinks he's a tree boa :rofl:

Haha that picture of him in the tree is too adorable.

Hey guys just an update! He finally found out a way to use his hides, he goes on and off to them he likes to be out at night

He just ate today, the reptile place recommended me to try 2 fuzzy mic before jumping to the next size and well... he ate them both just fine, I'm glad he's a good eater, I just recently got his two identical hides and he goes very often to the cool side one, I'm guessing because we live in a warmer area so he's just cool right there, anyways he's doing good as far as I can see, i just have one question, what is your opinion on feeding them inside the enclosure, I find a lot of different opinions on this subject and I don't want to mess it up! Anyways here's how the tank looks so far, I'll remove the skulls when he gets a little bigger he's really tiny so he fits just fine through them.
