Hi and welcome. Good luck in getting your new addition, they are certainly brilliant pets but they should come with a warning how addictive they are.
When you get your new addition leave it to settle in for a week without handling it, just change it's water daily and check for any messes. Take the opportunity to just run your hand through the substrate so that snakey can get used to you smell. After that week period you can feed him then 48 hours later start handling him. The settling in period is a killer but well worth it for allowing the snake to settle in well and have no problems with stress.
Once you have spoken to your rep shop, if there is anything you are not sure about or have found confusing don't hesitate to ask questions. We are a pretty friendly bunch :D |

Hi and welcome. A good resource for research is going through lots of old posts, it gives you a good variety of subjects and will be packed with tips and 'tricks of the trade' that don't come up in normal research! |
