Hello. So I have been reading over the forum for a little while now but finally came to ask a question. So this is my first snake/ball and my local breeder has actually been very helpful but I feel like I am bugging them a lot with questions. So I have had my snake for just over 2 weeks now. He is 8 weeks old. He is in a locking snake cage, with aspen substrate. There are 2 hides one hot one cold. The hot is from a under tank heater and stays about 92ish degrees +/- 2 degrees, the cold side is about 80 ish. He has a ceramic watering dish that he can fully submerdge into if he wants. I also have one fake plant in the middle of the habitat so he can climb when he wants. He has eaten twice so far(once a week) and they were rat pinkies. I don't have the ability to weigh him. oh an his humidity is right around 50.
So heres the thing. For the most part when I first got him he would go from hide to hide and every now and than stick his head out to the water bowl go about half in and than back to the hide. For the last 2 days he has been going super explorer snake. He is roaming around a bunch! plus he knows how his tank open and even though he cant get it he tried to use his head to slide the top open. I have taken him out a few times and he likes to wander. I tried making a cave out of a blanket and he would go in but come right back out in a few minutes max. Its like he is a snake on a mission.
I know every snake has a different personality but I just want to make sure he is ok. I also checked for mites and he doesn't have any... thanks for anyone help!
