I never did end up starting a progression thread for my first snake (or the others honestly), so I'm a bit late getting it started.
Mr. Danger Noodle (nickname Noodle) was my first snake, I got him back in August 2017. He's an Abbott's Okeetee corn snake that I got from a local expo.
I went a bit against the usual recommendations for caging size for a hatchling, but since I never had any issues with it, I didn't have much incentive to change it up. I started my 6 gram baby in a 37 qt sterilite 6 latch gasket tub with heat mat.
I'm going to just dump stats and photos for the first several posts to play catch up.
So, weighed in at 6 grams in August 2017.
Day we brought him home:
First feeding, I didn't think his location through and he dragged it right into the water and proceeded to eat it underwater:
Tiny Noodle head (failed to get my target tongue flicker shot):
He has always been fascinated by phone cameras:
The only time he has seriously tried to bite rather than the 2 or 3 bluffs at fingers coming too much from the front. Turns out he had gone blue and disapproved of me wanting to handle before I had noticed it, so fierce!
