    Re: My first ball python and introduction!
    Another good handling session this morning!

    I do have one question though... It seems to be doing great when I'm holding it and doesn't show any signs of stress. However when I put it back in it's terrarium today it started going in circles against the glass looking for a place to go and then went straight for it's warm hide. Is this normal behavior? Or was it possibly stressed out a little?

    Hes pretty much looking to escape, you'll prolly often see him looking up or climbing up to the lid, again he just wants to escape, Get some black kraft paper or even black paint and paint 3 sides of the tank! it helps them feel more Secure!

    Thank you so much for the advice!! I went ahead and put black construction paper on the 3 sides.
