So far my retics have been great tempered beasts. I do tend to handle them quite often as (shhh, don't tell Murray) retics are my favorite snakes of all time. These two are 'dog tame' as they say. I can take them to the school and let kids maul them. They never seem to mind at all. I think Merci actually enjoys it. My burms don't appreciate the attention as well. Both the males get hissy and the female will occassionally poo on me if she gets 'offended.' I have Merci n a cage beside my bed. Quite often I just open the cage and pet her when I can't fall asleep. She is extremly alert and appears very intelligent.She will even crawl off me to potty. The burms are responsive, but don't seem to be quite as much so as the retics. Merci can recognize me from a distance and will watch me as I take care of the other snakes in the room. It's almost creepy, someday when she's 20 ft long, I just might feel more like a rabbit than a 'friend.' [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] Time will tell, but I love these guys. These are my dream snakes, so I have finally made at least one of my dreams come true.
