Joanna thank you as well for the advice and the kind words.

Allister is the first snake that I have looked after. I read quite a bit about various boids when thinking about getting one ... I liked red-tails and blood pythons but they get so large. When dealing with my landlord there's only so much I can explain. Plus I liked what people said about ball pythons being curious and gentle.

I'm happy with him thus far.

So, the plan is, try feeding again on Thursday evening. No touching / handling. Clean terrarium and provide fresh water every day.

I have a feeling he'll be fine.

It sounds to me like you are doing a good job and have done the necessary research. More people should be like you and research first rather than after they have a snake in their posession. Best of luck and we look forward to hearing how things go.
