    I’ve come to laugh when a ball python strikes at me! They have tiny teeth, good luck with that buddy! Lol, even the meanest ones don’t even bother any more, since I pick them up with supreme confidence.

    It's gonna be funny when he eventually becomes the biggest sweetheart in your collection. My most shy girl (when I got her) has become a social butterfly. She loves coming out and climbing on my wife and me. Ahole may well end up surprising you.

    My favorite of them all!! Super calm, curious and sweet male. Pastel Fire Orange Dream Double Het Lavender Clown. This is the temperament I was looking for

    This is one of the girls. A little nippy but she calmed down fast Super Pastel Lesser Calico Het Clown.

    The other snakes weren’t up for taking pictures so I’ll post them later

    This makes me wonder though. Is temperament a genetic trait?

    More genes than I know what to do with 🤯

    Gosh I really hope he does!! I can’t even open his tub without him lunging at me....there’s a big sign “DO NOT OPEN” on his tub so my kids don’t open it by accident.

    There are those who swear that temperament is determined by the mother.

    At my house, the temperament is determined by me. Think positive...communicate safety to your snakes & nearly all will become reliably sweet.
