How long is he if i can ask?
NRE 808 your MD is healthy and indicative of proper breeders and keepers care. It is amazing what a good start in life will achieve.

dont worry Hsut77, if u can get him to eat and he dosn't appear stressed then all should be ok. i have heard that some sellers feed young snakes a minimal amount because it keeps them small and therefore easier to sell and take up less room.
