    Both the male and female are pretty puppy dog tame for the most part. I've used both of them in educational demonstrations I do and I've never had a problem with aggressive behavior towards people. In the case of feeding them however, they go Dr.Jekyl / Mr. Hyde on anything that looks like food. If they catch the scent of defrosted rat in their cage, all bets are off. They won't strike and coil, but more like rush up, bump the rat a couple of times with their nose, and then wrap (It's something i'm really not used to feeding snakes like my boas and ball pythons). But even with their aggressive feeding behaviors, I absolutely love working with this species and educating people about them.
