|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Aug-07 Gender:  | | | Iv'e had him since friday.. hahaha do ya reckon just let him adjust for a few more days before he's handled?
he is the size of a shoe lace and i am scared ****less.. like his head is smaller than the substrate he sits on.. im such a ***** hahahaha
Couple of Q's.. i'm new to snakes, i've only ever kept lizards.. what temp should his enclosure be at?? I'm running a thermostated infared.. and where should his hide rock be kept in terms of the heat source?
Any advice will be hugely appreciated  |
