New Burm! "Dexter " the Pearl Burmese python progression thread

[CALM Pythons]

He looks awesome and I'm guessing a similar age to my female Pearl - she hatched in August.

My girl is also really chilled, rarely hisses and has never struck.

Perhaps their docility has something to do with Pearl genetics if most hatchlings are snappy?

I think it has to do with what a breeder is breeding. The problem I see with Breeders is only breeding for morphs and not temperaments. Like the Dog problems. 20 years ago there weren't all these people trying to make all these different colors.. Now for instance Jay Brewer hatches thousands and thousands of snakes and the temperament of the snake has not a thing to do with it. In 1991 through 1998 when I got my first 2 Burms there was NO striking from any of the ones I looked at or saw others purchase.. Lots of noise but no striking.
