    Re: adopted Bp wouldn't eat thawed mice and gets spooked easy when handled

    Some Bp's are very settled when in hand. They have no fear of you. So congratulations.

    It is also safe to say that most BP's are shy animals.

    They also have different personalities. I have one that will cruise around with us, hangin on our neck, while I have another girl that will puff, hiss, and just be frumpy. And then we have some that ball up like a ball python will. They are all different. You can make them more used to you through regular small handling session, but sometimes they just won't ever settle down. You can't expect them to be lap animals, they aren't domesticated.

    But congratulations on the feeding! It may have seemed like he was having a tough time, but give him a few weeks, and he will be an excellent feeder.
