Sorry, we didn't mean to be snippy. There's a few other things going on besides the snake, so our own stress levels are kinda high. And sorry for the lack of info, we ordered him from a site called Big Apply reptilre supply, they're based out of NY, but have a shipping center out of FL. When they first shipped him to us he was probably about 8"-10". I have video and pictures on my phone, but we're having trouble loading pics onto here, so if someone wants to give me an email to send them to, I don't mind sending them. Also, he isn't skinny, dull colored or lathargic, he's very active, bright eyed and curious. Also, something we didn't really talk about is how we were heating the enclosure, we have it sitting on a electric stove top on low. JK, sorry, had to have a little fun, we had had a day/night heat lamp on, and after some researched realized we didn't have to have the bright basking lamp on, so we kept the red light on. We didn't have a heating pad. yesterday we bought a heating pad and a automatic thermostat to turn the pad off for a bit to keep it at a steady temp. We are using that only as of last night, with out heating lights as we didn't want to cook him. before we did that, the last couple days we noticed that he would dip himself into the bowl of water, even though we have been keeping the humidity at right around 50%. Again, sorry for being so vague.
