My New Children's Python

[Bogertophis]

When I decided on the Children's Python, I did so with the understanding that I would have to be a lot more careful than I was with my ball python.

I've only known the one I have, & she's not a biter at all, but I know that some of them are, just from reading other's accounts. I'm glad you're forewarned- I wouldn't blame you for using similar gloves for a while either, just to reinforce the idea that your hands are "unappealing". Anyway, most snakes learn with more handling- & most breeders have limited time to spend handling their snakes prior to selling, so hopefully yours won't be a slow-learner, once he gets more regular attention from you.
