Yeah he is awesome. considering ive read and heard that you hardly see them in their vivs he has been out loads exploring. Also cool watching him burrow through the aspen. He was very calm when i held him at the reptile shop i got him from as their was another that was very jumpy but he was very still and well behaved so knew he was the one for me. he is very tiny now as he is a hatchling and the males only grow to about 2ft. But get fairly chunky. his first feed is gonna be on sat :)

Lovely little snake.

I don't know much about sand boas but you will probably see him out and about the first few weeks as he is getting used to his new surroundings and exploring everywhere. Its after that they disappear lol.

Yeah he is so tiny. But sure he will start growing
before I know it. I love colours and way they look. It's what made me want a
sand boa when I first saw one. Just look so nice and they are slit calmer than
corns which suits me better :). The name is from the neverending story. Just
spelt without an e at the end. It's one of my all time face films. Forum name
comes from their also.

My male is the same, always out exploring and cruising around. A nose and two eyes is about all I see of my female though
He's an excellent looking KSB Congrats!

Falcor has stunning colours and markings....he truly looks like a 'wild' snake - one you can imagine slithering about in the sand hunting down prey.

I hope the settling in period doesnt seem too long and that the first feed goes well. How similar is the feeding of them compared to corns? (totally showing my ignorance here )

He is A normal ksb tho their colours can vary. U can get more yellowy than orange
colours. His feed as a hatchling is pretty much the same as a corn. One pinky a week tho
they can go upto 3 months without food. (not that I'd try that lol) but won't grow as big as a corn so
feeding will differ when older.
