    Darker Morphs more Aggresive?
    I forgot about this since the last white plains expo but anyways i was talking to one of the breeders at the expo and he said that darker morphs tend to be more aggresive. For example the chances of getting bit by a black pastel are higher than getting bit by a super pastel. Anyone ever heard of this before...?

    I've never heard of that. Sounds skeptical to me. My black pastel is the most social and calm bp I have. I've never been tagged by her ever. However, I've been tagged by a lesser and mojo a few times each.

    I honestly think it varies and depends on the animal. Maybe the guy has a genetic line of aggression. I know in some animals such as mice, aggression is heritable.

    Snake Bytes did an episode about this, and apparently it seems pretty true.

    I'm as big a fan of SnakeBytes as anyone, but I have not had any similar experiences with dark morphs. My very dark Cinny was a puppy dog and OBTW, Normals are pretty dark and they're the reason BPs became such popular pets.

    On the other hand, I had an Orange Ghost that was the devil incarnate. That thing was purely evil and NEVER calmed down.

    My cinny and my high white pied are literal demons. I personally think its each individual snake. I also have a few more demonically possessed snakes that range in light to dark.
