Dear little Henry would spend ages curled up, but not so Timmy..He climbs, he climbs up to my shoulder and around to the back of my neck. He climbs through hair. He climbs sleeves til he gets where he wants to be, always where not easy to get him lol

The day after a feed he's out, roaming, waiting to be taken out..he's just the same here as he was in the shop. Only when he is satisfied he had long enough mooching will he burrow, tonight he was only out 20 mins and he is far from satisfied

When he's being demanding I call him Hogwarts hehe my little wart!

Sounds like a great little snake. My hognose Hetti is still settling in, seems to have plenty of hognose attitude though. Been getting plenty of hissing and headbutts! Seems to calm down when you pick her up though. Spends most of her time burrowed under the aspen at the moment. Hopefully she will become more sociable after a week or so.

The guy at the shop was trying to sell me one with no attitude, but I enjoy their little mood swings so went for a grump! Save the tame one for any beginner snake handler who might find it scary lol

Thats understandable, this shows what they can do when they have a chew.

I don't think Hetti will actually bite me. I get all the hooding up, hissing and head butting when I approach her, but as soon as I pick her up it all stops. Very entertaining.
