Advice needed - blood python
It finally happened. Mike and I got a beautiful female blood python, said to be 1yo. She's about two feet long, and very thick. The previous owner said that she never bit, but somehow we tend to be suspicious about that. She's been hissing at times when Mike touches her, and once or twice she adopted the striking position. We left her alone in her new enclosure, and she's been sleeping ever since, that is since Saturday evening. Since none of us had a blood python before, we would like to know how to deal with her. Any advice on taming her? What about husbandry?
What type of substrate is better for her? Hide or no hide?
Any advice is appreciated.
