If he does get ya and wont let go rubbing alcohol or hard liquor should get him off (poor it on his nose).

After the "break in period" handle him as much as possible especially if you know others will want to hold him. Drop the mouse/pinky/fuzzy in the tank don’t let him notice your hand go in. and when he is bigger make sure you wash your hands after holding the mouse before handling him cause your fingers will look and smell like food.

I gave mine to a friend cause I started to get up set watching t he mice die (haha yeah I got weird).. My buddy never locked the top of the tank and he got out to never be found. Make sure you lock that ish.

What’s his name anyway?
Ya im going to let him settle in a couple days before i start picking him up, sucks that i have to feed him this thursday already, i know they are picky eaters and moving from the store to a new home must be stressful on it, i havent decided a name yet, and my tank has locking clips at the top and i have books on top to cover the vent holes to raise humidity levels anyway so i think that should be fine for now.....

names as of right now consit of

Cant think of any names?

Help me name it guys/girls!!!!!!!!

Name him Sebastian. haha

And the under tank heater is good for the night. You are technically supposed to have a night light bulb, but you can get away without it if you have an under tank heating pad.

As for the humidity, just mist him twice a day heavily in the place where your spot lamp shines. Did you get a humidity gauge?

Also the snake seems to like to move around a lot, idk if its just because its a new enviroment for it and he is checking stuff out but i think he likes it because movement normally means less stress, also i did see him drinking and people say that is rare to see a ball python drink, and normally only happens after he eats...


the feeding is tomorrow

Do you live in quakertown? I'd like to witness a feeding sometime. Maybe do a feeding dance or something.
