Once you Pop...
You can't stop 
Nothing to do with popping It's about Pringle, our new 18month old Male Het Pied Normal BP 
Such a cutie, such a dopey thing. We got him home today, he's currently residing in a tub, temps are all good, UTH is working, and the first thing he did when he got out of his travel box was explore Grants bed, then Grants beard and then decided he wanted a nice long drink - Which I might made me melt into a puddle of gooeyness it was so freakin cute. He fed last Thursday but obviously not gonna go ahead and try and feed him straight away. We need to settle him down, and figure out a plan of action for switching to rats, as apparently he won't take them and is still on jumbo mice...
To do:
-Switch from pesky dial thermometers to digital thermo/hygro one
-Get a bigger tub (too cramped I reckon) until friend comes through with viv (We are set on getting the viv now, though I am more than likely switching Pretzel to a tub)
Anyway. You guys seem full of sound advice. Here goes.
When I got Pretzel, she was chilled as anything, I left it to feed her. I handled her as little as possible. She wasn't awfully twitchy or anything, she just hid away. With Pringle we've done the same... however...He seems really jumpy and if you go near the tub he sticks his head and neck right out then back in again (not striking) - Is he just hungry? I feel I ought to know this, not like he's my first! I know all snakes are not the same too. I just worry. Over worry.
Also he has these marks on his side, I'm going to post pics up when I can. They look like scars. Not sure if they're bite scars or burn scars. No help with no pic I know...They're all kinda jagged and pure white. Pics soon.
Anyway dead happy with him. Can't wait to get him properly settled
