New arrival today

So I received my Tiger retic today and she is a beauty...and pissy lol. I used a pair of leather gloves to get her out of her carry case and she struck a few times and just kept her mouth open. Once i got her out she bolted for the hide. Now time to leaver her alone a bit. I ended up keeping here in the big cage..I have a hide on each side, her water dish and paper towels as bedding for now

not the best pic but here it is

Awesome looking rectic! Just my opinion, but that hide seems a little too roomy to offer a baby snake security? Maybe stuff it with rocks and moss?

Re: New arrival today

I would go with a hide at least 4 times smaller. Most snakes like to fit snug in the hide.

Good looking tiger. Def get something smaller for now and get her a bigger one as she grows. She'll eventually grow into that one and then grow out of needing a hide all together.
