Thought id share my new animal of the house, and my experience today. This is my second snake and was able to talk the wife into letting me have a larger one (ball python was my first snake)
I let her get use to her enclosure for almost 2 weeks only taking her out to clean ect. Today was her first feeding and went well... well except for the part of putting her back in the cage. I had never been struck by my Ball so I was quite suprised when I went in to grab the Redtail from her feeding tub she struck me good.
My ball had always been the most gentle and docile after feeding ect. Does this happen to not be the same with a BCC/BCI? Do they seem to require a bit more "cool" down time after eating?
in any case, here is a picture of her, and any input you can all give would be great
