They are awesome, but when they're babies, they have a slight attitude problem, I've come to find. They puff up (thus his name is Mr. Puff and his girlfriend is Mrs. Puff) and do a "fake" strike, by pounding their faces into you, basically. As they get bigger they get calmer and more used to handling. And they are absolutely GORGEOUS: beautiful chocolate and caramel highlights.... And did I mention that I think they resemble puff adders? In addition to looks, I think their behavior a defense mechanism. I even think there is an adder that lives in the same area they come from. I'll have to research that to be sure but it does seem to make sense....
