I'm like a new mum with a baby at home.
Last night I woke at 2am and had to go and check on Nimbus! I wanted to check his warm side temps were ok as I was so worried the temps would go too high or too low even though I have a stat lol
Needless to say he was fine and temps are spot on so I needn't have worried. I still got straight up this morning and ran down to check on him though lol
Anyone else do this when they got their first snake?  |

Lol,you are a true snake owner now.
I still still check on them as soon as I've come downstairs and I've had Loki since the beginning of August!! I like to check the temperatures and try to spot them and their poos. I realised how much I did it when I moved Loki into the viv from the faun.
The stereo is now where is faun was and I kept glancing at the stereo!! |

| yes, every day, we went away for 4 days recently and I couldn't sleep as I was worried Tiko would poo in his water bowl/escape/regurg/die/anything else terrible. As far as I can see this is perfectly normal behaviour for snake owners! |
