He kind of reminds me of those gummy candies that have the color on top and stark white on the bottom. And I have been debating on weather or not to feed him in his set up or not. Especially since he's already so nippy and I've heard horror stories about them swallowing their substrate. I figured for his first meal I'd try pulling him out and he didn't hesitate to strike and eat. Even though it was a super pathetic stike. Very clumsy, lazy and adorable. When I had my Boas I always fed in tank, I only had one that would have a food response when I'd put my hand in but only on feeding day. Lol
