Mirabelasunshine is right for the most part about JCPs. They can tame down with handling, but not always. I expect a bite every time I go in to handle mine. I'd continue to steer your brother clear of arboreal snakes. Carpet pythons are generally arboreal when young, but turn terrestrial with age. Jungle carpets are probably the most nippy of all the carpet pythons. You could encourage your brother to look into Irian Jayas, they do tend to be more easily tamed than the other arboreal snakes. From the sound of it, tame Irian Jayas are easier to find than tame jungle carpets. On top of that, they are probably most like amazon tree boas in their arboreal habits. They do come down to the ground occasionally like amazon tree boas do, but they seem to have a preference for staying up high their entire lives. On top of that, they are the smallest, usually no larger than 5'.
