That sounds like a snake with character 😁Originally Posted by peacocksteven
Yes I enjoy them very much. Super calm and easy to handle. Initially in a new environment they will like to hide and keep moving when you hold them. It takes a couple of weeks for them to calm down and get used to new smells. The female loves to just chill out on my lap, but the two males are usually always on the move and takes a few minutes to calm them down.
They do have a strong feeding responses depending on your housing and feeding methods. Mine due to limited space I feed them in their homes, so they get restless when I open their enclosures. I use tongs to feed them and they associated the tongs to food. So far they haven't struck at my hands, and I've had them for 5 months now. Young dumerils are fed once a week, and adults every two weeks. Mine like to eat thawed large rats.
I have no experience with baby dumerils, so idk what they are like.
Also if you can spare extra substrate, they love to bury themselves. Only the tip of their tail and head are exposed.
