    Are they getting calmer these days? Mine have been grown up for many years now, but I don't recall any big issues that way with mine...maybe it's more prevalent
    in some gene pools? (-I suspect it has to do with some inbreeding to attain new variations in appearance.)

    Silenthill and I haven't had any issues with these two. They pretty much hide all day and they come out in the evening about 30 mins after the corns or once lights go out. They don't show any signs of being defensive or flighty when being handled. Overall they have been a pleasure once the husbandry got dialed in a little better.

    Oh good...I must be thinking of someone else? I've always found them easy to handle.

    It might have been from her post earlier on in the thread that you were remembering.

    They are pretty but the size of their eyes to their head is uncomfortable to look for me lol.

    Guess we don't all love the same things- that's okay. But partly it's the angle of that photo too. ;)

    Good to see them again, it's been a while. We have another member (HouseofBoop) that's going to be getting one soon too, btw.

    I'm still trying to adjust to the idea of skinny snakes in general lol, I spend way too much staring at the new cornsnake trying to figure out how that tiny headed thin creature eats a whole mouse. My preference definitely leans to the chunky and slow moving.
