Yeah, he seems very shy, guy i brought him from said he is handled loads and wont be a problem. i took him out earlier and he darted straight back into to tank. Dunno if i scared him or if i smelt funny or if he just getting used to his new suroundings? think its best leave him until 2moro and see how he is then. thanks all.

With the colours being quite orangey if I were you I would call the snake Heathcliff. Yeah Heathcliff is a cartoon cat but very orangey colour like the snake.

Yeah, i'd say an Amel too. I have a female Amel. She's nuts. Hates being handled and hates me. Lol. So i still try to handle her every now and then. But every time it seems like she'll never get used to it.

How long have you had him? He might not have settled in yet, you might need to leave him for a few days to get used to his new home.
