Mine's an Eastern, he was a freak but is now a super calm sweetie.
I have to cup him to feed him because he won't strike or eat if i dangle or if its just laying in his viv...and he flips out when i stick him in but when i open it up and he has a full belly he plays it off like nothing happened.
Found him in my yard in late sept. Weather was staying cold, i think he was a late hatcher and he was so small he could get into a straw.
I had to split 1 day newborn pinkies in half because they were giant compared to him. Now he can eat a whole x-small pinkie by himself.
This guy is what really pushed me into collecting reptiles.
He is Punky Pie because he's an a%#hole when it comes to feeding. Very first reptile and the little jerk made me mutilate baby mice for his enjoyment.
Thought i would share
