My new Pinstripe!!!
just got a 10 month old pinstripe ball python in the mail today from Reptiles by Mack. he seemed to be very calm and not nervous at all when i unboxed him. he even tried to squeeze my hand tighter when i lowered him into his new home. then he spent a few hours crawling around before halfway hiding under his log. i did reach in to tidy up yhe mess he made in the bedding and straighten out the thermostat, while doing so he struck at me from under the log, all good tho i was making patting movements to straighten up the bedding so i am sure i looked like food or something. i was wondering tho, i know i am supposed to wait a few days to hold him, but how serious is that rule really? if i hold him tonight what is the worst that could happen? he did not seem stressed or scared of me at all durring the unboxing process... i have 3 corn snakes that are perfectly fine and i think out of the 3 the longest i waited was 36hrs after rehomming...
