    I am fairly uneducated about them myself, and i'd really like to be.

    I own two Gorgeous jungles both 6 months old, n they aren't snappy or feisty at all. but in saying this. I knew they weren't when I brought them, as I handled them before I brought them and could tell from their temperament they weren't going to be bitey. This was because the breeder handled them regularly and got them used to being handled etc. so if you do your research on the snake and ask to handle the snakes n form a good relationship with the breeder uyou can get calmer snakes. It just depends on who you buy from and how you go about buying them etc.
    1 male 8 month old children's - Cedric, 2 green tree frogs - fleur (f) & Franki (m), 2 6 month old Jungle pythons - Jamal (m) & Jazarah (f).

    Took her out for some sun time today

    Also rang the museum, they said that if i was to have a licence she would be listed as Morelia Spilota. Couldnt give me much more info than that.

    Really am enjoying her, she is so far, so sweet

    Geez she's a stunner! You were right to go with your gut instinct if you ask me. Would definitely be finding out what she is. Hell, I'd ask him for a second one but that's me hehe.
