You've already gotten good answers to your questions, but I can say I love my little snow morph Bull who I got a bit ago who's a '12 baby. He never hisses, strikes, or tries to bite: the most he does is the tail rattle so some babies are more laid back than others. I got mine from Jonel Lopez and would recommend him: he has ads for '12 babies on Kingsnake Classifieds if you want to grow up a baby.
