    Really enjoying your photos & posts...I have a (granite phase) spotted python too, she's about 10 years old now, and an awesome snek....all the behaviors
    of her larger cousins but with the ease of handling a small pet. No way I could hold mine ("Yiva") and feed her, her response to food is insane...she swings
    around wildly & ends up biting anything in her way (including trying to bite the glass!) if she misses the rodent. I have a feeling that as yours is growing &
    has a bigger appetite, she is starting to associate your hand with food, not really a good idea IMO, but hey, it's your hand. They are very strong constrictors-
    hard to pry off, even without food involvement...you shoulda been there the day mine got "stuck" (her choice) in my long hair & wouldn't let go....:O But
    at least she meant nothing by it, it wasn't a food response.

    Like yours, mine loves to climb & bask on a driftwood branch in her cage, so I use both UTH under one of her hides, and a basking light (red) over-head.
    She's very nocturnal, so I end up leaving the dimmed light on for her. She's also one of those snakes that you can't sneak up on...she's extremely aware
    of me & anytime I walk by her cage, her face peeks out to see if it's dinner coming. These may be SMALL* snakes, but boring they aren't! About the size
    of a young adult corn snake, but needing warmer (boid) temps. Mine has done very well being handled by strangers for a "meet & greet" too...good thing
    they aren't seeing her feeding response. :rolleyes:
