great grab,not too young and fragile.Mine were docile once removed from the cage,they just seem to be very very nocturnal and are more head shy than others I think because they see so much better at night.Looks like the yellow is starting to fade and the green will start to show.Great snakes,good luck with it.

Nothing is as refreshing as seeing a well kept enclosure with clean healthy thriving animals doing what they do. Dont let your animals live in nasty little homes. Also, our voices do make a difference. Pay attention to warnings about reptile bans and such, sign a petition, be heard, it works. Thanks

yeah but do you think its just because they are more worried about birds or something or maybe just something with their eye site,or,it seems they got bigger heat pits than most,idk what do you think.I know that if you take my other snakes outside their pupils are visible but my gtp were dang near gone.Seemed they were better in low light but I guess this just interest me for some reason.your right though,look at amazons,they are real bad about it.All great snakes though.

What you say makes sense...all of it.  Fight or "flight"...in other words, protect the head...is probably the first reason.  Poor eyesight would fall into the "why" they feel they may have to protect themselves.

BUT...every animal has the ability to be "different" than the norm, 'ya know?  I knew a pretty nice hot cobra, and have know PLENTY of evil corn snakes or bearded dragons.  I think animal behavior can only be explained so much, and the unexplainable stuff is what keeps us fascinated and still wondering!   Wink
