I just got my first JCP. I always thought these guys were vicious but I have met so many nice ones that I decided to give one a try. I guess its when they are young thay are nippy. I just had the impression they were an aggresive snake since I had originally seen them at shows and they were all striking at thier tubs lids. Well this little guy is pretty docile so far. A little head shy but he seems to be curious about everything. I figured I can take a few nips from a little guy like him so He will be good and used to being handled by the time he is big. His yellows re already atrting to show so I hope he will be a looker. He is 9 mnths old,and I think he is just adorable. Still needs a name.
