I am a little confuzzled :roll: about the cooling of snakes, have read other posts on it but still not 100% on it. When people cool their snakes over the winter months, do they stop feeding the snake or do they keep feeding it?? I am under the impression that they stop feeding them, therefore they do not grow much. This was why I was going to keep him growing and not turn the temp down. From the sound of it though, maybe he isn't all that small and could be cooled. As you mentioned africa and I have read, DPS could be associated with this topic. Better to be safe than sorry.
I will have to start reading and find out the temps and time frames involved...

Africa, Alf was soo excited tonight he jumped out of his skin and I caught him half way through it, was amazing to watch. He has grown 8cm in 2 months. I have just put him to bed hugging a little afro rat..
