Just as an update. He's calmed down considerably. He was aggressive up until about August when we finally started taking him out and letting him slither around our yard. It was an instant change. Much more calm.

Size wise he's up to 1300grams. He eats regularly, and it's the only time he shows aggression. Occasionally he'll get hissy after eating but I think he is just feeling vulnerable.

Hates getting put back once he's out, and shows lots of interest in our cat. Our black lab runs from him.


I just wanted to come back and say thank you all for the help and advice you all offered.
