thanks for all the info daybreaker. It has helped me out a lot. Sorry for all the ?s. I just want to make a good decision on getting a snake and making it feel comfortable.

Is it possible to take an adult king snake that is a tad bit nippy and tame it? The reason I ask is that one of my friends moms has about 4 ball pythons, a red tail boa, 2 calli kings, 2 blue tongue skinks , and a few tarantulas. Its gotten a little overwhelming for her to take care of them all and she is looking to give most if not all but one of the calli kings away. They just dont get enough handle time to be completely tame.

Im worried that it will never be able to be handled, and I dont want to get another reptile just yet that I cant handle especially a snake that you cant feed in its tank. my beardi is cool and so is my tokay. but she is not to partial to being held and i can feed her in her tank just fine. I hope you can tame them cause that would let me give it a better home.

once again sorry for all the ?s, but thanks for all the info.
