    couple of things ive noticed since i got kumo and question

    he still does wonder every now n then but not so much, only when i mess up the humidity or temp which i fix shortly.

    ive noticed he prefers 82 degrees to be the ambient temperature, above 84 hes roaming around.

    theres one question of concern involving his head, sometimes, maybe half the time his head is sticking out of the hide. its a dark hide room for him, all walls are covered in black construction paper.


    maybe im paranoid,

    its been about a month maybe a couple weeds longer since ive gotten him and hes a little over 100 grams, im thinking the hide might not be small enough because when i take the hide off he has alot of room in there it looks like.

    i got them from reptile basics, the next size from the smallest

    That is actually a pretty normal way for them to hang out in their hiding spots. Many of them "hunt" this way - sticking just their face out, waiting for their food to walk by.
    Sounds to me like you have a happy, content little snake!

    Yep, the sticking their head out is completely normal. On feeding day my girl does nothing but wait outside her hide until I feed her.
