Hello, I brought my butter home today for the first time, took me a 4 hour train journey..only problem is the lady in the shop told me she THINKS i should feed him his pinkie straight away, but i've been told by other people to leave him to acclimate for a while. should i just put the pinkie in and see what happens? I dont want to stress him out after being in cars and trains almost 6 hours..thankyou for all your help! |

leaving it a week to settle before feeding probably the best idea, and to be honest the snake will already be stressed from its travles so you would only be adding to it. |

He will be best left to settle for the week first. It really won't hurt if he's not fed. |
