Re: Thinkin' about bloods
Black Blood are the smallest of the three and tend to be the mellowest.
Borneo's get a little bigger and for the most part are mellow.
Bloods (reds) get to be the biggest and seem to be more aggressive.
The thing to understand about Blood is they aggression comes from fear. They are a very nervous and insecure snakes. They will keep you on your toes, but with some work that can become mellow. The one thing you never want to do is let your guard down around them. They can spook very easy. Once spooked the can be striking machines. Plus they are one of the few pythons that will muck or piss or even crap on you when scared. When handling them you always want to move slow. Never pick them up from above always slide your hand under them and lift.
Any other question just ask.
