First time posting a pic how's it look?

This is my first ime posting a pic. I'm not that good with my camera yet so hope it pleases everyone. His (i think) name is Gunter, it's an indonesian name meaning thunder. Inamed him for the fat little thing he is but he has turned out to be anything but thunderous so far shy and timid are we. Very tentative feeder and as of yet refuses to take f/t or f/k anything. I can only feed him small mice and he won't go for a second helping so I can't do the f/t afterward to get him used to the taste. Woe is me, good thing I breed my own. Anyway what do you think of him.

My male was the same way when it came to feeding. I started him on live and then I would kill the mice so that they were fresh. After a few weeks he started taking frozen thawed like nothing. Great pic and good luck,
Tom
