I got a diamond python hatchling as my first snake and he is just so adorable! :) He is still settling in his new environment though, so I haven't been handling him much.

yeah i just got another one also, but he hasnt eaten for a month, so im getting about worried. seems to be ok body wise though, hasnt lost any weight. hopefully he will start eating soon but, cos ive never had a snake this fussy with food before.
 
Just be patient, I guess. Dante refused to eat too for almost a month, got me rather worried but he still goes on active as ever. But he finally did take up on his pinky rat yesterday ! :D It was such a relief when it happened.

thebraddles, it could depend on what your feeding him. i find with diamonds, they prefere mice with fur. so if your feeding on pinky's id suggest try with fuzzy's. my boy didnt eat pinky's when i first got him but tried on fuzzys and he took it straightaway;)

captive_fairy, that last diamond pic is amazing! he's huge!:p

yeah sweet as, i might give that a shot..see how i go, its been almost 5 weeks since i got him, and he just doesnt seem interested. as i said he hasnt lost any weight, and i have tried pinky rats and mice.
