I fed him two large pinkies also, but he is a very good eater and was only on one small pinkie at the pet store. I might of confused some of you in my first section--his last move was into a ten gallon from the thirty gallon. I did add a lot of extra hiding places (he has four good tight places to hide now). He isn't much of a hider anyways. I've left him alone for two days now and he seems to be okay. Before if I even came within a few feet of his cage to peer in at him he would blow his neck out at me, but now he just stops and stays still.
When I first got him he was really calm and docile, but not now. I believe it was the stress from the thirty gallon's largeness. Oh yeah, the only time I ever used a glove on a snake it was with two seven foot carpet pythons that were fighting over a rat--not with a teeny rosy boa. He has already struck me three times since his attitude changed and never broke the skin once. They are nippy but their speed is deadlier than their bite.
I like the construction paper idea, I think I'll do it today.
Thanks alot
