Twilight seems to be having a mad five minutes at the mo (actually make that a mad couple of days). At night time and early in the morning he keeps pushing really hard at the bottom vent trying to get out and making loads of really loud banging noises. I can't quite work out what's making all the noise - I think he may be tensing his body against his viv furniture and the log or hide keeps banging the back wall. I've just moved it around. Saturday night he had me awake between 11.00 and 1.30 then again at 4.00 to 6.00, last night was better he just woke me up early this morning. Little goit!

I've been making sure he comes out for a good roam around - this morning he was all over the place and I had to put him back in to keep him in one place. Weird.

Just thought, maybe he's hungry? I gave him a two week break after his two regurges then he had a small mouse last Monday which he kept down. Maybe this is his subtle way of saying 'I want some more'!

got to admit it sounds like our boy lucien, hes been super active these past few weeks - even to the point were he climbs onto his kitchen roll and tries to use that as a perch to try and get closer to the lid to push it off..he hasnt quite mastered the art of balancing though so he kinda falls off and then a few mins later is trying it again! bless his little heart - hes so simple!
but he does keep us up - you can hear some rustling and then a dull thud..then a few mins more rustling and another thud.. he does it repeatedly til we get him out for a bit of a cuddle and then he settles down lol its like having a baby!
how often is he being fed?

My carpets were like that, they used to climb up the branches then fall off, quite a thud considering they were each 6 foot!

I know how you feel :/ I get that every night from at least one of them but I kinda have the ability now to ignore it mostly now unless they fall off from something then I hear a thud and it wakes me up XD... lately it's been Ember pushing against the side of his RUB and moving all the stuff in his viv in the process >:( normally it's Char trying to dig but she's been a good girl lately :)

I also wake up to find a 5ft orange thing staring at me from his viv :/

He could be hungry but snakes are active at night so it could just be that and he's all hyper because it's summer and it's more sunny now so he sleeps more and then needs to burn extra sleep off at night XD or at least, that's what I would like to think but it happens in winter as well :/

Hehehe it seems like a lot of people keep their snake's in their bedroom's :)



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Oh no, don't say that. My daughter didn't sleep through the night until she was 3 - I've got visions now of watching The Magic Roundabout at 4 in the morning whilst gently rocking a snake.

I'd just moved him to a medium mouse every 7 days but after the regurges I gave him a small so I guess I should go back to 6 days again. I'll feed him tonight and see if it makes a difference.

We put Twilight in the bedroom because that's where we spend all evening (it's where the good TV is!) That way he keeps us company whilst we're watching a film. Saracen is in the computer room and is more active in the morning and early evening which is when we just happen to be in there, so they get equal attention.

well to be fair when I'm at home, I spend most of my time in my room, so it means I get to chill out with them.

Although they have a dendancy to be a bit voyeuristic.......

I wouldnt get any sleep, day or night, at the moment with 2 horny males! Although Silvesta has calmed right down and is actually blue (still hasnt eaten though ). Kellog is all over the place and has worked out that he can wedge himself in the water bowl to push against the glass doors to try and escape. He has climbed his plant and fallen off so many times that it has bits coming off it....and to top it all his nose is sore from all the rubbing he does!

Definitely the lounge for my snakes!

Hahahahha brilliant XD

Mine are in my room as they aren't allowed anywhere else in the house. It doesn't matter though since I piratically live in my room XD it's quite annoying though when they are being very noisesy and I have important stuff the next day :/ and then you turn the light on too look at what there doing and they stop and sort of look at you as if to say, "what's wrong? I'm not doing anything!"

I don't like the way Venom kinda perves on me when I'm getting dressed though :/

Well, I don't know what you people mean but I was just talking about being stern with your snakes and telling them to be quiet. Honestly, the way some peoples minds work (goes off with shocked face mumbling about the youth of today).

Oh no, well and truly told off. I only get called by my full name if I've been REALLY naughty, and that honestly is almost never (mumbles 'sorry Judith' whilst poking a toe in the ground.
