New here, wanted to share my addiction

GTP's are best fed at night. It is also best to remember this when thinking about handling as they are quick to taste and slow to ask questions. Try pitting paper over the cage to limit distractions as well, it may be a little stressed from over stimuli.

He's actually too shy to strike, I took him out to help with the shed and didn't even try biting once.

Tried feeding at dusk, day, middle of the night, scented with rat, mice, now searching for chicks... Next week it'll be a month since the last successful feeding and I'll have to try to assist feed

I'll sure try covering the sides of the enclosure, thanks!

That hypo burm is amazing! But I'm sure when you say 'my biggest mistake' you're talking about the mamoth size he's going to get. Heehee. I've always wanted a small one, but I've never taken the plunge since I know I can't care for a large one. Still, what a beauty!

Yeah, it's gonna be though to house when grown but also cant wait to have a 12 foot beauty to play with

I love the character, he's always so attentive. Pokes out of his hide when I get home, comes to the glass to check me out when I go say hi and darts out to smell me as soon as I open. Still a bit hissy until I get him out but getting better.
