Don't think anyone said deal with it, someone with 40 years of experience should be able able to handle a little hiss....if not than a snake is not the right animal (and that is what I truly believe) , sooner or later the snake will hiss or will attempt to strike even that future albino, anyone thinking the opposite has
A/ Not owned enough snake.
B/ Has not owned snakes for long enough.
C/ All of the above.
So what when the albino hisses or strike, get another one???
Snakes are not for everyone.
I have dealt with blood, carpets, bullsnakes so I know all about snakes with attitude (even dealt with lizard with attitude) however I have reasonable expectations and I know the difference between a cuddly puppy and a wild animal.
