Posted: Wed Jun 04, 2008 1:08 pm Post subject: How do I reassure my python? |
|
When I take him out he's curious and such, but as soon as he leaves my lap or hands he spazzes out on the floor and is hard to catch. (I put a hide on the floor and he always goes into it, that's how I 'catch' him)
He's afraid of being out in the open. How do I let him know there's no predators coming to eat him? My room is not very big but it's pretty open. (This is partially so I can find him when he leaves my hands)
I try to keep him on me, but you know how that is
Any ideas? When he's on me I usually have to put a towel over him before he relaxes.

i think you should just try and handle him more often maybe twice a day if you don't do that already, i also read that you should wash your hands with the same scent before handling them so they know that scent is associated with you

Hm... Okay I never though about the scent thing.
