My first bp (lesser bee)

[SpecialGreg]

So i know people say to switch to rats asap but im scared because rats bite. And i know bp are picky eaters. Idk. Just kinda scared to switch over to live rats...

Finally settled on a name today on the drive home from work. Raiden will be his name. Think is fits him very well with the spider pattern looking similar to lightning and his whiteish color.

Thank you. I sit and stare at his tank at night waiting for him to come out and roam around. Lol and now my girlfriend (who was scared of and had never held a snake before) is talking about getting another female bp friend for our little guy. Ha ha maybe breeding a few years down the road. ha ha ha its crazy what a calm and beautiful snake can do to people.

They don't, or at least they shouldn't. Even the pet store rats I used to buy as feeders never bit me or my snakes. Also I haven't had hardly any trouble switching mine between live and F/T (give it a wiggle and they don't seem to mind if it's dead or not).

Lesser bee's are great, aren't they? Welcome to the club. They seem to yellow out to a nice golden color as adults, which I think is lovely. This is my lesser bee, Gio, who's a little over a year old.

So i was feeding Raiden last night and i dropped the mouse in his enclosure like normal and went over and started to watch a movie. I could see his little head poking out of his hide on the cool side where he was. A couple minutes later i hear something and look over and he is freaking out striking the air idk i would say about 5 or 6 time repeatedly before he stopped and kinda laid there for a few secs and quickly went back into his hide... now keep in mind the mouse was in the middle of the enclosure hiding not nearly close enough for Raiden to get him. I freaked out and removed everything from the enclosure and just left him and the mouse. He then got it and ate it down no problem. He just shed either yesterday or the day before. Im worried. I know he has some nural issues cause his spider gene. But please help!?!?!?!?
