Just a thread to show you all my new BP. He's about four months old and he was 128.6 grams when I got him, but dropped 7.4 grams after turning down f/t mice twice.
My research suggested that a 4 month old should be closer to 300 grams, so I'm a little paranoid that he may be underweight, but he looks fine as far as I can tell. Going on two weeks since I got him. I tried to feed him f/t but he had no interest in it at all, no matter what I did, so he ate a live mouse on Sunday night. These pics are all from before then. (Sorry they're so large, I'm still figuring out how posting pictures works.)
The lighting is just for pictures and the red-topped tub is what I'm using as a humid hide for the time being. It's stuffed with sphagnum moss and is the hide he uses most, aside from the cardboard tubes. If you have any questions about my husbandry, feel free to ask- I've done a lot of research but I'm still very new at this. I love to learn better ways to do things.
