stimson python

Hi,
I just got a stimson hatchling 4 days ago and it seems okay. It fed okay but it is never active? Is this normal?
And can you overfeed a python, how do you know when they had enough?

they are very likely to be nervous in a new environmet. just leave it alone and feed it a pinky mouse once a week.
i just bought 2 myself over a week ago, the male i never see. he hides under the paper the whole time, but so far feeds well. my female is out and moving alot, but not yet feeding.
so if the snake is being quiet and not moving around much it might actually be settled and doing well.
Just make sure your temps are right (30-32 in hot end, 25ish in the cool).
