So this will be a progression thread for my sterling Ball python, Alduin Jörmungandr.

Here are his stats so far.

Name: Alduin Jörmungandr
Age: Roughly 2-3 months. Have to look back on my records. 😑
Gender: male
Weight: 158g
Length: unknown for now
Prey item: rat pups

He's calm down since first arriving at home a week ago. Allowed me to take him out to snuggle today. I fed him on Monday and he readily took his first meal since he got home with absolutely no problems! 😄

I had him out for a bit today and decided to take a few not very great pictures of him. He doesn't hiss or strike at me but he is deathly afraid of my camera. Lol


'Get it away from me...'


Trail of hearts. Love his patterns!


Camera shy! He's so adorable!! 😍

Good looking snake!

I love the hearts.

Thanks very much. Those pictures really don't do him any justice so I will be taking some tomorrow or so. Lol maybe I'll create a light box just for his pictures.

Anyway, I noticed he has a tiny dent in his eye. I don't really know how he got that since his humidity fluctuates between the 50-60s. Either way, I switched out his smaller water bowl to a larger one and saw the humidity rise to 66%. Hopefully this is OK. He isn't shedding yet but he might be soon, pink belly and all. I think this might be around the time he shed last time too...

First time with the light box method. I think it came out OK but I'll playing around with the lighting.




With flash. This is a no go for next time.

More pictures! Better lighting hopefully using my diy light box.





Just a bit of periscoping. He didn't do it for too long but it was cute to capture on camera. I think he was curious about the tv when he did this. 😍

Fed Alduin today and he took his f/t rat like nothing! His third feeding with me and I am glad he is doing great! His rats, however, smell really gross. Well maybe just gross to my standards. Lol also, I found that boxes make excellent temporary hides if your bp decided to paint his other one in poop. 💩

Nom!

Nom!

'What? Do I have something stuck in my teeth?'


Still haven't been able to get a picture of him 'yawning' but maybe I will someday. I have 25+ years.

[Reinz]

The yawns will come for sure!

[MysticMoon001]

Like I can see them just not capture them. I may need to invest into a better camera this upcoming cyber monday. I was so glad he didn't flinch when I had my camera out (he usually does).

Alduin almost shed in one piece! It was just the very very tip of his tail that needed a tiny bit of a soak. But Woot!

Here is a Halloween photo of him.
