Meanest morphs?

    Snake Psychology: As hatchlings, BPs see us as friends now, lunch later. They are unaware that they only grow 3 feet long. Once they figure it out, we are nothing but warm things to them. Not companions or masters or anything. Just a warm object that appears occasionally for reasons unknown and provides much appreciated heat, making it tolerable, but not desired.

    Dogs look up to humans, cats look down. Snakes tolerate us at best. So lovable!! :snake:

    I honestly have never heard that before...

    Having as many animals I have, it really just depends on the animals themselves. No specific morph is more aggressive than another. Just like people...

    But I do have a trio of sisters that are double het for Ghost and Albino that are ALL horrible. And they are full grown. I always know to be careful with them...

    My Axanthic girl got me just an hour ago! First time she ever showed aggression, and she nabbed my hand and then launched an attack at my face. She missed the second time, phew! I was just letting her hang out on my lap while her cage was being tidied.

    Yeah, I heard that from BHB. But my two black pastels are total sweethearts. My cinny pewter was a heavy-duty biter for the first 6 months, but she's made a complete turn-around and is another sweetheart.

    My axanthic, on the other hand... she's gone from being completely neurotic to biting to pooping on me to simply hissing every time I touch her. At least she's improving?

    Pinstripes!
    For the most part all are a bit timid or jumpy when bought young if especially if there was little to no handling prior to being sold.
    Be patient and your bp will enjoy you as much as you enjoy it:D

    Our male YB will turn and taste for no reason at all, first time he got me just sitting in my hand and I was not moving at all. He was slithering around and hung under my hand then bit my knuckle from the bottom when I couldnt see his head.:taz::taz:
    Our male OG strikes at anything and everything, he has even taken to hissing now:O:O:O

    My cinny female was like that until she got to 1000g now she's scarily angelic. My pin male is an absolute terror. I get that very same look everytime I have to pick him up. To him even striking at anything infront of him.  demon spawn.
