What is the temp in the warm end? Apart from the 2 days after eating my 2 spend about 70% of the time in the cool hides.

Thanks Remmy, nice to have encouragement and would like to get as involved as I can in forum. Everyone was such a help to me in the beginning and I am sure that help will continue cos I know I have lots still to learn. Just getting replies to your cry for help is a big help, knowing people are reading your question and understanding what you are going through..... xxx

you learn by asking questions and if you go ahead and state something and someone can give you tips, and/or another pointer, then you will learn that way too

Not to be afraid, no bashing on here only in the politest ways possible..

That's very good advice Taz, best to handle her after a week of settling in only changing the decor around every couple of days and the water; handle her for 5 minutes every day for a week then upto 10.. then upto 15... My snake is never out for more than half an hour daily, only leave him in the blue and 2 days after feeding.

nice snake and welcome. Let him settle for a few days.my snow corn likes to curl up nice and still on my arm she has always been a very calm and relaxed snake she likes the heat of my body mind snakes take the heat from their belly.My other snake never sits still.You might just have a nice calm snake though it is still pretty young in time it will develop its own personality just persivere n only handle for short periods to start with. goodluck
