How old is this snake? A baby? A juvie?

That sounds like a nice set-up, maybe just right for an adult blood. But baby bloods really prefer smaller enclosures to feel secure. This advice was given to me by several good people on here and I found it to really be true. I had a baby that was not eating at all. I switched her over to a smaller tub (40 square inches of space) with a smaller water bowel, and she started to do much better. Now she's eating every five days, putting on weight and growing fast. I think she's almost grown enough to move her up to a slightly larger tub now. But, for sure, baby bloods like small spaces.
