AS the title says, on saturday I picked up my Ball Python, almost two months old, easy to remember the breeder told me his clutch hatched on mothers day. Hes a beautiful Mojave I couldnt resist his bright yellow alien heads!
His tank is a bit large for him at the moment(i forget the exact size but as of now its a cluttered 30 to 40 gallon tank) two identical hides, one warm side one cool side.
When I put him in the tank I placed him on the warm side but when I returned he had come out of his ball and moved to the cool side hide and hes been there ever since. I check on him ever so often I hope im not bothering him too much.
In a few days Ill see how hes acclimated and take a few pictues, and by thursday I think he will be ready to feed(i hope!)
--I think hes doing well, last time I checked on him he smelled the air once, seemed more relaxed too, no longer in the 'oh my gosh im scared form of a ball' position and more loose and relaxed.
