I would love more of these videos 😁 Watching common problems could be equally useful as seeing the successes.

I didn't expect this to be posted haha. Frankie did so well. I can't wait to see him do more complex training sessions as he gets older. Thank you however for your guidance! Without you, neither me or Frankie would be what we are today.

That was supercool. I want a Bredl's soooo so badly. One day, hopefully, one day.... You must be a real night owl, Lori. I was all my life until I hit my forties, about four years ago, and now I'm very early to bed and very early to rise.

But if I get a python, I'll gladly change schedule. Actually, I wake up so early, I might not even need to. I often catch two to three hrs of darkness in the morning.

Yes. I work nights and have most for years. I am just naturally energetic at night but the bredli do wake up early evening at dusk and stay awake until light. Some are also awake during the day but just less active. They remain visible usually when they’re resting during the day too.

Hey Lori, thanks for sharing this video 😁 I am guessing/hoping that all your time investments have been paying off and giving you lots of consulting to do 🤞 I do miss the regular RU-vid posts, but seems you are really under appreciated in the viewing figures 🙁 You are such a good influencer and positive contributor to serpent welfare 👏👏 Kind regards, Andy

Thank you. I am super busy working on my master's degree and it is taking up a lot of my time. I am still running by consulting business as well as the animal sanctuary so I have less time to produce videos!

Hi Lori! What is your thoughts on the social structure of snakes? Do you think that captive snakes can form bonds with each each other? Most information states that being around another snake can cause stress. However while that it is possible, being around humans would be equally if not more stressful. But most snakes learn to adapt very well to humans. Do you think that they can bond with another snake of similar species. Eg 2 red tail boas?
@LoriTorrini

It depends on the species of snake and in addition to that, the individuals. Some species of snakes are very social and thrive in communal settings while some are actually ophiophagous and will eat other snake including their own kind outside of when mating. Many species are in between these two extremes. In my previous cohabitation studies the snakes most commonly kept as pets such as pythons and cornsnakes seem to thrive more when housed individually but can benefit from supervised time in common areas together outside of their habitats as a form of social enrichment.

Hello Lori your videos and knowledge have helped me a lot in living with my snake. Thank you very much. My ball python is exhibiting strange behavior. It often leaves its terrarium and moves freely around the room. When I am in the room, it also approaches me hesitantly and slowly. But every now and then she comes within a few millimeters of me and sniffs me two or three times. Then she jerks her head back and quickly withdraws from me again. I am doing nothing during that. Do you know why she does that? Does the snake perhaps not recognize me after all and only realizes after sniffing that I am me and not a food animal? But I have the feeling that my snake recognizes me and knows who I am. Best wishes and much success

That behavior you’re describing of approaching and then suddenly retreating is a normal reaction when the animal is investigating something and then becomes stressed or fearful. It’s a defensive/fear reaction to create distance and protect itself. If the snake recovers quickly and starts to investigate again that is good. If it remains withdrawn or balls up and hides its head the stress and fear are escalating which is not good.

@@LoriTorrini Thank you for the answer. I dont follow my snake or try to grab her afterwards. She just retreats to a more hidden part of the room and then begins to explore again. Just a sidenote: I know ball pythons are ambush predators, but I think my snake shows more hunting behavior. I warm up the rats in her room in warm water. The smell makes my snake explore and move towards the bowl with warm water and the rat. Last week - for the first time - she acutally found the bowl and recognized the rat in the warm water. She even drank out of the bowl but didnt seem to like the warm water (temperature between 30 and 40 degree). I then took the rat out of the bowl and she immediately grabbed the meal when it was just out of the water. I will now try to puzzle feed her more and see what she can do. have a nice day

A question on target training; my royal is trained to the point that she'll go into a tight S-shaped stike position an inch or two away from the target ready for the rat, but hasn't ever made the move to bridge that final gap and actually touch the target to get the reward--is touching the target a necessary step or is her following it to close strike proximity enough? How can I help her realize that touching the target is the behavior I want from her?
@LoriTorrini

@@Cool_Story_Bruh It sounds like you have classically conditioned her to associate the target as a signal that food will follow and both want to teach her that the target alone doesn’t signal food but that it signals an opportunity to and reinforcement (food) contingent upon performing a specific behavior first. These are two different types of training and uses for the target. To change from one to the other show the target and wait for her to make any substantial move in its direction or acknowledge it and then reinforce. Wait longer and longer each training session until she is progressing further and further. I have a step by step target training playlist and video that shows the steps. Some snakes learn this quickly but in my experience Royals take longer than average to progress. Be patient.

​​​@@LoriTorriniShe does take the substantial move in the direction of the target and I do wait to reinforce, it's just she doesn't actually touch the target when she gets to it like I've seen Bob's of Green Room Pythons do--they'll follow, like mine does, but then they'll touch it with their nose too and not just stop right in front of it. I'm past the association stage of pairing the target with food in front of it--I show her just the target and wait for her to approach where I want her before presenting food, just like in this video. For instance, after completing the pairing stage, my cat picked up that I want him to actually touch the target and not just go to it after the first time only presenting the target, because I gave him the treat after he walked up to the target and sniffed it first. My royal though won't touch the target with her nose yet, she will follow it though, and stop just short of it. I'm worried about waiting too long after she goes where I want her to reinforce, because what if instead of figuring out that I want her close that final one inch gap and touch the target she thinks I'm not going to reinforce the substantial movement? Like running a 100m dash, but stopping at 99.9m--you made the movement, you're right there, just touch the finish line
