>>LOL! Thanks, Todd! You're the third person on as many sites to mention him stuck to the wall. I actually watched him crawl out of the egg, and climb up there, before taking that shot. It is the first time I have seen a neonate crawl up, instead of curling up in a bottom corner. Makes me wonder at arboreality in dione, which is supposed to be a fairly terrestrial ratsnake. It will be interesting to see where the others go, after they hatch. Maybe it has something to do with the zero-substrate incubation? Maybe not?

Toby, maybe it has something to do with getting away from the nest, conditions, or simply trying to escape from the container.
