He's starting to creep me out

[JeffDenver]

Strangles poked his head out while I was at the computer and just stared at me for like 20 minutes.

I know he probably cant even see me from in there, but it was still a little creepy.

Looks like he's planning an uprising. Better watch out, you're about to be overthrown.

Cute! Looks like he's been excavating :laugh:

Nice picture.

So cute with that little 'camo' pile on his head!

 

[Peanut Lover]

Awww sooo cute! Are those shavings on his head? My snake stares me down sometimes too lol

 

[JeffDenver]

On the plus side, it is now common for him to be crawling around the viv once or twice a night while I am there. It was really starting to bug me that he was constantly in his hides.

I know he cant see very well...I put my hand up to the glass the other day, and when i got close enough to touch it, it freaked him out and he ran into the hide. It was sobering to see just how fast he can move when he wants to. I am going to be more careful with him while he is out of the viv.

The shavings are just the substrate. He digs around it in a lot. It is shredded coconut husk.

Cute little guy .

90% of the time, about 90% of my snakes come out to watch me when I visit the snake room. Hungry or interested in seeing something "new" happening in their room? Who knows. I get it about it being kinda creepy to get stared at for minutes on end, though .

Yeah once they become comfortable with you they tend to watch you. I have 18 sets of cornsnake eyes on me every time I go in the snake room. (The ball pythons tend to not care, lol)

Ah! That is so cute! I love it!

That made my day. I should show this picture to the next person who says they are afraid of snakes and then laugh at them.

Thank you for the good idea. I'm going to put more cute snake pics on my phone.
I'll leave off the laughing part. Maybe just to myself.

 

[DanaP]

That is just too cute

 

[RachelSnakes]

LOL. I was holding my hognose yesterday and he was sitting on lap and started to look up and stare at me Really cute picture.

That is so cute. Very nice photo. Love the substrate on his head.<vbg>

Many, of my corn snakes, like to watch me too.
Although, ... as far as watching, none of my snakes beat out my garter snakes ... now those are some really observant, alert, curious snakes.
