Wiggles, the Children's Python

[Bogertophis]

Despite how closely related our two snakes are, they are very different. I wonder if that's due their differing species, age, sex, our different styles of care, or just plain old personality. I guess it just goes to show that there are a lot of different ways to be wonderful.

I absolutely agree- snakes are individuals, always. You can only learn & assume generalized things about the species, but then you have to go from there & learn about the one YOU'VE got. So I appreciate you sharing your observations & experiences here. Anyone who thinks a snake is a snake like all the others of the same or similar species has a lot to learn. Keeps things interesting-
