stainless steel can be very sharp (train aircon units) and electricity packs a real big punch
back on the subject..have you thought about getting one of those platinums???

| | | | Hi. I've been bitten a few times by my MD, never by my Darwin. Of course this may be just due to the individual snakes. Everyone always seems to say Darwins are snappy, but I haven't found that with mine. The MD has bitten once out of aggression/fear (when young) and a couple of times as a feeding response when I was careless feeding. The Darwin is more flighty, but not aggressive at all. IMO both are great snakes. |

|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Jun-06 Location: CQ | | | I think you should get a mate for your current python first
If you have any desires to breed your animals.
But then still get a Darwin later on, they are nice.
