Ha ha corns hate me for some reason i have yet to meet one that didnt wanna bite me or wasnt on the evil side. My buddy has one that won't kill it's rat crawlers before it it's it. He will just start swollowing a little rat butt end first no strike nothing.

They can be a little jumpy, but Betty is the first MEAN one I've had! Maybe you just don't have a "good corn vibe" about you, LOL.

And yeah, they aren't so good at the whole constricting & killing thing... that's why I only feed mine f/t, since the few times I've fed live they (the snakes) got bitten or swallowed it alive. Ewwww. Over on another corn forum where I used to post, the colubrid-only keepers get all huffy about feeding live. They will actually accuse people of animal abuse, not loving their snakes, etc, just for offering live prey. All I can ever say in response is "keep a collection of BALL PYTHONS for a year, and then get back to me."

That is a gorgeous corn! Sometimes individual colubrids just have a nasty attitude forever. I had a Texas lucy that would take my face off if she could every time I opened her tub. I had a rat in the tongs ready to shove it in her face for her to bite whether she was hungry or not whenever I opened her tub on cleaning day lol.... And I have my 11 year old Texas lucy male that is sweet enough for kids to hold.
