    Difference Between Male and Female Ball Pythons?
    This is most likely a silly question but after having a female and then male Syrian hamster I saw how completely different their personalities and temperaments were.
    This makes me wonder the difference in personalities between male and female ball pythons and if you have experienced this. Obviously male are a lot shorter usually and their gender can also impact how quickly they become mature and when they may go off feed. But are their any difference temperaments between male and female BPs (like if they are more calm or if they tend to be more active or exploratory).
    Once again sorry if this question is silly but I would like to know if you have ever noticed any shared personality traits depending on the gender of the BP?

    I don't think there are any differences. I have both male and female BP's that are easygoing, fine with being held, etc. and I have males and females that are still a touch defensive as adults.

    I agree I think the only difference between the two is (my opinion not fact) that males are maybe more hard to keep eating regularly, females eat better. Like I say that is just my experience with them, others might say "not so" with their experience's. And of course their size difference's. But personality difference's due to gender? nah.
