Hello newbie here from MO.!

Hello I am new to the forum and new to snake keeping. I got my snake from a breeder on Friday and he/ she ate saturday f/t. I look forward to learning all I can from this forum! I know I have tons of questions!

Hello and Welcome! What kind of snake is he/she, if I may ask :)

Welcome!

welcome! ask any questions you have. we're here to help. :)
:welcome:

Hello and welcome. Wow fast first feed. Congrats on the new pet. :gj:

Ball python I was told it is a pastel possible pastel enchi. No problems with eating. Snake hasn't ate in 7 days so it was hungry. Snake is 2 months old so still small. Having trouble keeping humidity about 50% that's a concern I have. Big water bowl and screened top. Ive been misting to raise humidity temporarily.

cover the screen top with plastic wrap or tin foil to trap the humidity.

if you post a photo we can try to help identify the morph. a Pastel Enchi has a very obvious head stamp.

I'm not sure how to upload image from phone.

Download the free app TalkTap. Very easy to use(So I've heard lol I just post links from sites like TinyPic)

They look like a super pastel to me. Super cute and so tiny!! Aaaaah!

Did I hear you say you're from Missouri? (me 2 m8)

so u own a Boss 351? post pix plz. :)

i think i see a veeeeerrrryyyyyyy faint butterfly/clover head stamp which would indicate Pastel Enchi. i'm not the best at IDing morphs so maybe others can state what they think.

Jealous, I live too far away for that stuff. I'm hoping to go to the Springfield Repticon next year. Literally the only convention I know of that's near me lmao.

EDIT: and I hope those were rat fuzzies - mouse fuzzies are a bit on the small size for beeps.

Fuzzie mice? My beeps around that size and he needs hoppers(I messed up food sizes so he gets 2-3 fuzzies a feeding)

u have a Pastel. welcome to the forum.

here's a nifty chart!

Can I feed multiple fuzzies to at least use the ones I have?

weigh your snake and the fuzzies to determine how many you should feed based on the chart i posted above. you shouldn't feed more than 3 prey items at a time, or so i've been told (can't remember where i heard this "rule").

I'll have to get a scale. That chart is helpful
