he does not have a hide box. should all snakes have hide boxes? i ask because i do have 2 other snakes, a ball python and a carpet python, neither have hide boxes. im not sure if putting a hide box in the carpet pythons cage is practical. its a 30 gallon on its side so there is more room for him to climb. perhaps some foliage would relax him too?
can i really wear gloves? i didnt know if he had to get used to my smell and whether or not the gloves would prohibit that.
when u say handle it daily, do u have any time length in mind? it would probably be a good idea if i handled all of them daily, except of course after feeding. if u dont handle a snake for a few weeks, would it be normal for them to not be as tame as u remembered?
