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.

I would definitely suggest this species to anyone with a good amount of experience with snake husbandry before hand. Just keep that mindset on getting a black headed python one day and I assure that you won't be disappointed with getting one these beauties!

Both species in the genus Aspidites are extremely beautiful and unique Australian pythons. I haven't worked with Woma pythons, but if they are anything like my Black Headed Pythons you are definitely in for an extremely rewarding species.
