ps. not getting one any time soon

To be honest, I'm having a VERY hard time finding good care sheets on the web. My favourite one so far is this: http://www.corallus.com/urbanjungles/ammycare.html

I'm getting a pair in like 20 days lol So I've been researching like crazy. Their temperments are known to be a bit...um...Huffy. However, with that said, I have seen alot of pictures where a person is handling their friendly ATB. As long as you're willing to work with it to calm it down and have the realization that this species is known to be nippy and you'll probably get nipped a bit, go for it. They're amazing snakes.

CraigC: Now I'm wondering if you've seen my piercings! LOL

I wish! :D J/k No I was just venturing a guess that you will probably be feeling like a "pin-cushion" trying to tame that pair down. So any pain from future piercings should become a non-issue. ;) BTW, I'm too old for the new "in things" and have had too many things "pierce" me in unplanned fashion that I just can't conceive of having it done on purpose. :rolleyes:
