For the people with ATB's how is their temperament? Do they musk and strike a lot? Also if so do they calm down with handling and age?

:please:Ive had mine for about 3months. When I held him in the store he struck at my face twice, luckily I was fast enough not to be bitten. Since Ive had him home Ive held him a few times without any musking or bite attempts. He seems as cool as my other snakes, but that doesnt prevent me from sweating bullets when he starts to make his way close to my face.

I have worked with multiple Amazon Tree Boas and I would consider all of them aggressive. Some less than others, but they are probably the most aggressive Tree Boa.
I've only been musked once by my red male, so they don't seem to be horrible muskers.
Hope this helps. :)

Well so far with mine i havent been musked and hardly handle him, but he loves trying to bite me. It takes me about a half hour to 45 minutes to get him out of the cage for cleaning, because he thinks im his nemesis or something. Lots of fun and i love him to death.
