Oh my gosh. I hadn't considered moss, that's a great idea! Thank you! Well, he/she is too young to know just yet, but we find out in about a week and a half. If the snake is a Male, we'll name him Neptune. If the snake is a Female, we'll name her Namira (Totally an Elder Scrolls Reference). I'm actually hoping for a female. I don't really know why, it just adds a sense of comfort. Either way, we've already fell in love with him/her. I've read that Hatchlings require quite a bit of handling if their to turn out not so hostile, so we've been handling him as such. Letting him explore up and down our arms, around my neck, he especially loves curling up in the Fiances chest. We also have a fleese blanket that he seemingly adores. Are we going about this wrong? So far, he seems happy and excited, very calm in his cage and very curious and "lovey" outside the cage. He's only tried to tag me once, and that was when I tried to remove him from the box into his new enclosure (I completely understand that he was frightened. It was also the loudest it's ever been on that highway, of all the times for two ambulances and a Firetruck to drive RIGHT by, Sirens blasting ).
