Is that not necessarily true?
    By nature they are non defensive, calm and inquisitive however as juveniles they have an insane feeding response. Once they realize you are not food you are good to go.

    They have insane feed response their whole lives! I argue there the best snake to start with in the medium range because they're hard to not feed

    I'm considering the addition of a woma to my collection so reading all of the threads about them and getting some great information. Thank you enginee837 for your input as well.

    Should womas should be housed in a separate area of the house if I have other snakes in my collection?

    My balls and womas are all in the same room. In fact I have 3 sub 400g balls in the same hatchling rack as a couple month old woma.
