Re: meaner than the average bear???
Yeah my summatran is really tame even more so than some of my bp's my borneo on the other hand is a bit hissy not aggressive though she will calm down with time and handling though. Overall very docile snakes just like with anything though they do have to capacity to bite if pushed to do so.

But Bloods are rewarding animals, in my opinion more rewarding than Ball Pythons. With a ball python after about a month you have a good idea what they're going to look at their whole life, the exceptions tend to be morphs. However Blood Python's patterns change every shed! My little girl is in shed now and I can't wait to see how her pattern changes.
Oh yeah: When a blood bites you, you know it! They have considerably more teeth than a ball :P
Yeah my sumatran Has gone through a pretty drastic color change IMO his head has darkened up a bit and hes overall darker that when he was a hatchling. He's just a big softy and sweet as sugar
