Hi there. I'm new to the forum, so please bear with me.

My family as owned a ball python for about 5 years now, and It has been in my sole possession now since June. Since then I've been taking it really seriously (much more than my father did ).

I have looked into owning another snake, and am really interested in other pythons. As a newer snake handler, however, I am concerned with how aggressive other snakes may be. Something tells I wouldn't be able to tame a snake myself. I'm intimidated by my ball sometimes, even though he's only hissed at me a few times, and never even come close to striking.

Are other pythons pretty chill? Would raising a snake from a very young age help at all?
