Hello All,
We have just bought our first snake, a nice little spotted hatchling.
In just under a week, it has the family smitten.
We have left it alone now for three nights, and it seems happy.
Sleeping all day, and a bit of activity at dusk.
We are not going to handle till we hit the week mark, but we are thinking that we may feed.
Our breeder told us that we could feed it in a couple of days, and we’re thinking it’s hungry.
When active, it’s exploring the click clack in a relaxed but active manner.
Also noticed a pink belly, and I have read that this can be a precursor to hunger.
Therefore, we are thinking of feeding tomorrow.
My main question is, should we feed it in the click clack?
Just not sure about moving it to another container for feeding just yet.
We don’t want to handle yet, but want it to be handled all the time in the future.
Will feeding it in the click clack make it house defensive?
Thanks for any advice given.
Cheers.
