I will give him another soak so I can get that off ASAP then, he is roughly 18 inches long, a friend also said the enclosure may be too big but he explores the entire thing so I feel like its not too overwhelming for him but then again I am so new to this that I shouldn't make any assumptions.. thanks for the response, the snake also seems to be climbing up the glass at the front of the enclosure quite a bit and he is super active, is this a sign of anything?
He was apparently born in late July or August
