i have a pastel female that was crazy while she was young. she would hiss and sometimes strike whenever you opened her tub. seemed like she was just an always P'Oed girl. she also has a crazy feeding response one puts on weight like nothing. now she still likes to hiss a lot but has calmed down as well.

she was bred last season and laid a clutch of six eggs for me. the hatchlings are just like momma with one being exceptionally crazy.

its funny because it seems that their personality is exactly like their mothers and would lead me to believe that certain personality traits in ball pythons can be heritable genetically.

now lets just hope they can pack on size like momma.
