Ok here is my male Blood python "Sunday" He was very angry all the time at first, not striking but really letting me know he didn`t want me near him, every time I had to do something in his enclosure. I haven`t pushed the issue at all, I thought I`d just do everything I have to do to ensure his wellbeing and he`ll just have to get used to me. It`s worked a treat I`m glad to say. It`s getting to the point where I can actually hold him for short periods of time without too much fuss, although he`s a bit squirmy, hard to hang onto if he does decide to make a fuss lol He`s never bitten or tried to bite me, yet. He`s grown loads since I got him, he was a bit underweight at first I think, but that`s easy to fix with an appetite like his ! He`s on large rats now, coming straight out to attack it the second he smells it. When I first had him it took ages to get him to eat never mind strike, I just think he wasn`t comfortable on display in a shop. He gets a lot more peace and quiet in my snake room. Anyway, here he is, this is about the best picture I have of him.....
I`m growing a baby female on aswell at the moment. She`s totally tame compared to him ! She`s a real looker to....
