I never see my baby Mexican Milk Snake

TacomaUte Aug 29, 2005 07:12 PM

I realize they are nocturnal but I never see him in the mornings, evenings or even at night. He just stays in one of his hide spots. The only time I see him is if I pick up the hide spot to handle him. He looks very healthy and lively and is getting used to being handled. The temperature in the terrarium is perfect at both cool and warm ends. Should I be concerned?

If you could see a baby milk snake all the time, then I would be worried.
