I took Gene outside yesterday to show some visiting family members our newest addition, and within seconds of the warm sun hitting him, he was cruising all over my hands and arms! It seemed to energize him more than just taking him out of his tank in the bedroom does. I took him out again today and after a few minutes walking around, had a group of kids that live here in the apartment complex following me around and asking me questions. I've officially been dubbed the "Python Dude", it makes me laugh. It also amazes me to see people that are normally afraid of nothing cower and back up when they see a snake tongue flicking in their direction.
