Thank you for the complements. I am thrilled with how everything is going so far. The kids are doing great with him.... leaving him alone when told and they were thrilled to get a chance to hold him and did wonderful with it. I think he is beautiful and I'm excited to watch his colors develop as he matures though I would be thrilled if they didn't change at all either LOL. I'm already thinking of maybe getting a 2nd and looking around for discounted supplies (I want to get everything set up in advance if/when we get another). I had no idea how much fun a snake could be and I am loving checking out all the different morphs too.
