Do your Mojo's have an attitude?

[Bobtard]

My mojave is as sweet as they come.

I guess I lucked out and got two of the nice ones...

I can't wait to make a super with them!

I currently have 11 mojo / mojo combos in my collection and I find that they are not aggressive , but aggressive feeders. Every single one I currently have or have owned has been a savage eater. Is it the gene?? Who knows , but I wish all my animals fed like my mojos.

Mine has a slight attitude. He eats like a machine though, never had an animal like him. He will constrict with his whole body, unlike all my others, who only use about the upper third of their bodies.

Tried to strike at me a couple of times, but he's generally fine.

My mojo is very mellow and fun to hold but when its feeding time he is super aggresive he will strike outside of his tub and then drag his rat back in.

I have a young male and a young female Mojave that both have terrible attitudes. They strike and hiss at me just about everytime I clean their cages. On the possitive side...they are both excellent feeders! Some of my other BP's can be a little vocal at times, but rarely if ever strike at me. I was just curious if this could be part of the Mojave genetics or if I just ended up with two angry Mojo's. Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,

I think the key here is the fact you have young snakes. They do tend to be a little more fussy. As long as they have a great feeding response, I wouldn't worry about it.

Good Luck!

My Mojo might be the sweetest BP I have ever dealt with...unless youre a rat.

All in all, mine are terrific feeders as well Trevor. However, even my Caramel Mojave girls are no immune to the 1000 gram wall. The last 2 months -- not so much about the food.

I only have 1.1 mojave, 08 siblings. The male is very nice and actually a better feeder than the female who is also chocolate. She is a hisser though. Not a bad eater but occasionally skips and never eats seconds like him. They where produced on a breeding loan so the only thing I know about the mojave dad was that he was big. My Garcia line chocolate mom is a feeding beast (ate two retired breeder rats last feeding) and a little jumpy when first handled so maybe that is where the 08 mojave chocolate girl got her hissing from.

My Mojo's are both sweethearts. The male is a terrible eater, but he's a male so he eats enough to make me happy, but I have to turn the lights of and leave the room. I lay on the floor with the hall light on and watch him from around the corner. I'm trying to get him onto p/k with no luck yet.

My female has her moments, and seems to know she has hit 1000 g's so has slowed down on eating But, neither has hissed or struck at me. Now my little 2 month old het axanthics? That's a different story.
