Slightly odd behavior...

[Pythonfriend]

Triple weight.
5 Day schedule.
Got it. I officially have a notebook sitting next to my computer for all of this information. Hah.

Should I give him two pinkies or move up to fuzzies?

mouse or rat? basically for hatchlings a rule of thumb is: somewhere around 10-15% of the body weight of the snake every 5 days. in this case, i would increase the upper boundary to 20%. when the BP is in better shape and older, switch to a 7-day scedule of 10-15% of its body weight in food. then it depends, as a pet they dont need much as adults, as breeders they need a lot.

Update:

Put him in his tank about ten minutes ago... He did this before I put him away...


He put his head into his hide and hasn't moved since. I'm legitimately worried about him. :/.

i take the optimistic approach and would blame the malnourishment. implying that this will get better and the behavior will be more natural when he/she gets in shape. otherwise you will be stuck with a lovely odd BP . which really isnt too bad . worry about this issue when the BP is in perfect shape and still shows it. but then, to my knowledge, nothing can be done about it. who says pets need to be perfect, as long as they are healthy.
