To adamhess,
So I hope I'm on the right track. I have a hatchling nile and his temperament seems nicer than most. I don't handle him, I actually don't ever plan to and that's ok with me. I started tong feeding, now I'm hand feeding. He doesn't run away at all when he sees me because I make sure I move very slow so he can see every move I make. He is in an enclosure in his own room that only I go into. I put socks that I have worn into his cage so he can get use to my smell and some time he lays under one. He has come up to me a few times since I had him so I hope I'm on the right track I guess only time will tell. Do u think I am doing things right or can I improve? Like I said before I don't plan on him ever being tame enough to hold him but I would like him to not see me as a threat and be able to walk around me when he gets older.
