That's what Caesar does.

Yes i have hides on the cool and hot side, he usually spends all his time in them unless he wants to perfect coil on the heat... he hasn't eaten since last friday, i offered on monday but no take.... i dont power feed, i feed just enough at the moment (building rat colony, and i need to get rid of bad mothers/violent offenders and he is the go to for this). he did have a bigger meal though that friday.

i didnt try handling him much after was in there due to not wanting a "negative handling". maybe some more time he will mellow. this thread was started to be ahead of the curve rather than behind. i didnt know if maybe he "smelt" some tail and now is in a mood as well. but i didnt think males breed at a year....

thank you for the reply!
