You better stock up on Xanax then! The babies naturally hide from predators that especially means their caregivers! They hide in, dig under and generally work to disappear. If your enclosure is right-no climbing spots you are good. Just prepare!

Hello and welcome! I have a redfoot so I can’t give advice on care but I just wanted to say that I totally felt the same way when I brought Soup home. Everyone has opinions and I thought Soup hated me for the first few months lol. He was 4 months old when I got him. I did not understand that he was still a tiny “Newborn” and his instincts were telling him to sleep and hide. But I made an effort to talk to him every day and just let him know I was here and boy is he a social butterfly now! He’s a year old and as soon as he hears my voice he comes running over to me. He cocks his had and listens and looks at me when I talk to him. He begs to be picked up and run around the house (obviously I closely monitor him and have some play pens set up so he can’t wonder far). With your reptile experience and the help of this forum you will be a great tortoise parent
What kinds of snakes do you have? I love snakes but I just can’t get past the feeding part
My redfoot, Lyric is the same way. I got him when he was 4 years old. I didn't know that he would become as interactive as he is.

My neighbours actually passed our front garden the other day and said to each other 'the previous owners used to take such pride...'
So rude. How can my baba get all his greens if I don't let them run riot XD
