I can see your keen lol
But
royals are not like corns the settling period is longer. Royals have the ability to stress at the drop of a hat, if you have one dont drop it, give it 3 feeds before handling to make sure it is settled. I know it is a pain in the rear end but is for the best. |

| Duke's settling in lasted 7 weeks, lol, it took a few weeks to get him settled and feeding (and tuning in my setup to the fussy Royal way) and then 3 weeks of feeding. It soon passes though. Get yourself over to www.theroyalpython.co.uk come and have a read and a chat from all the other patient nutters with Royals. |
