he got here about 8:15 he was very cold so i popped him into the warm end of the viv am a little worried about him

he moved a little when i picked him out of the plastic box put his night light on to warm up the viv a bit more with him been that cold
hes not moving at all but i think that's normal with him been cold and in a new place will get a better pic when the camera has charged up lol

So pleased for you Shaun, and pleased that Mort has warmed up and is feeling happy enough to slither around. Would suggest you drop temp now to below 30 as you dont want him to overheat. Now he has warmed up he can move about from the warm end to the cool as he wants to.

He looks gorgeous, lovely strong colouring. Looking forward to seeing more pics of him.

Lovely little snake, his colours are very vibrant.

As Kellogg said now that he has warmed up may be best to drop the temps below 30, between 27-29 is ideal.

I've got to say though by the size of the hide i though you would be getting an adult snake lol, well atleast he has a bit of growing room now hehe.

It is likely not for the snake, it is probably cause Shaun is scared of the dark

Its actually better to either have a light on in the day and turn it off in the night or not have a light, that way you can simulate day and night time.

As for the temps a mat with a stat will be plenty sufficient.
