LOL. Yeah the little ones can be scared easily. They are so tiny, and know it! I got Figment at 9G and 5 months or so. He never struck, but was a little wiggly at first. After a week or so, he totally mellowed. Much more as he got older too.Originally Posted by Virago
got the temps dialed in perfect now, 85-88 hotspot, 77 in the mid and goes down to 72-73 on the very coolest spot.
my corn is now much calmer in the tank and is utilizing all hides and branches. it still freaks out a bit when i attempt to handle but its still very young.
He still moves a lot more when being handled than my BP, and even my BCI, but is 100% non aggressive and has never hissed, struck, etc. He just likes to dart around. Corns are more active and need more support when being held relative to a Boid.
Figment is now 4 1/2 years old or so and 640G and over 5FT!
Here's his thread on the forum: https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...nder-Corn-Baby
My how they grow!
Good luck and good job getting temps dialed in! Your little one should never refuse a meal and should be ok digesting in those temps.
Glad he's happier now too.
