That's the start of the Dominican's active time, and at least one of two the carpet pythons is usually moving unless they've been fed recently. I still refuse to give in to the BP temptation, holding out for prasina.

My BP was my first snake. I've also been lucky with him, as far as BPs go he is quite active and visible. Not the norm for sure but he is great for advertising BPs lol He has also been in a display cage from the beginning. Since moving to the basement and less ambient light he is out more as he sleeps in the open instead of his hide. It's dark enough in his cage I presume from monitoring his behaviour when compared to the ambient light.

I think they get a bad rep for being pet rocks, some are for sure but other members have had kings who are hidden all the time as well.
