Hi, I'd like to introduce myself. I'm a new snake owner from Kent, England. After thoroughly researching snakes and their care I decided to plunge into the wonderful world of snakes and purchase two corns of my own (from a reputable dealer). One is a Carolina Corn and the other is an Anery Stripe. Both seem to get along great together (they're roughly the same age and size) and seem to have settled in well in their new vivarium.
But I'm fretting like a new mother. The Carolina (his name is Socrates) just curls up in his hide over the heat pad and sleeps most of the time. He does come out to slither around but quickly goes back from whence he came.
The other (Scooby) is out all the time, slithering around and being totally inquisitive. When I handled them both in the shop they handled well, were calm and really seemed to like me.
I've not fed them yet, they're due for their feed on Friday (tomorrow).
Should Socrates be sleeping all the time? Should Scooby be slithering around all the time? Can anyone give me a little reassurance please? I know I must sound really dumb but I just keep fretting over them.
BTW, this forum is so much nicer than the other one...really great posts and informative and helpful answers....plus NO PORN...GREAT!
Thank you for bearing with me.
