    Just when you think you know everything...

    You start thinking scenarios.

    I actually have a few questions.

    One:
    I think my smaller BP is scared or just doesn't like hairy mice. Could this be true? (Still eating alot of pinkies at one inning because won't eat anything with hair.)

    Two:
    Are different kinds of snakes such as Boas and Pythons hostile?

    Three: There should be one here. Just can't think of it.

    Check your temps, that could be the cause behind the not eating
    And some boa's and pythons are just as docile

    It differs snake to snake. I think the snake ends up being what you make it in the long run. If you work with them, you can make the "meanest" of snakes puppy dog tame. Baby snakes are generally nippy. My Burm is usually a big puppy dog. As well as my BP. The worst the bp has got is just hissing at me. And the Burm hisses sometimes but he hasn't bit me since he was a baby.
