OK, heres Slither, come friday we will have had her 1 week. She weighed 61 grams when we got her. I observed her on the hunt the first 2 nights we had her so I fed her a mouse on sunday. I had heard you need to wait 2 days until you can hold them after they eat. So I held her today, she seemed different. Sort of alert to everything. When I moved her in my hand she turned her head to maintain her eyes on my face. Then I moved my face without moving my hand and she drew back! She has not defecated, should I wait for her to do this before I hold her? She did not strike, though when she drew back I figured it was coming, I just held her until she eased forward a bit then put her away. I swear she has grown too, lol. How fast do they grow? And my whole enclosure is warm now, 85 to 90 degrees, humidity at 55%.
thanks
