Placid to snappy!

Hey i was wondering if people could put in order from placid to snappy differenct pythons.. i know all pythons are different, but each breed has a general reputation... this post has probably been done a thousand times, so if you don't like it.. just don't post... simple.
Thanks... oh and if i miss anything you wanna add in.. just add it.

the list......
coastal carpet
jungle
olive
black head
woma
scrub
water
diamond
darwin
murrey darling
bredli

My list based on my experiences with the above: Placid to Snappy, that order (not including feeding responses)

Murray Darling
Olive
Woma
Darwin
Coastal
Water
Scrub
Bredli
Jungle

(Diamond and Blackhead ommitted due to no contact)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And now, the list based on reputation as I hear people mumble:

-Placid
Bredli
Woma

-Often grumbly
Coastal
Olive
Murray Darling
Darwin
Diamond

-Snappy
Waters
Black Head

-Killers
Jungle
Scrub

(Of course, next week I could end up talking to a pile of Bredli owners and consequently move them right to the bottom of the list. )

I don't know what you guys think about Jim Stopford, but talking to him a few weeks ago and he said something along the lines of saying one python is snappier/more placid than the other is the same as racial profiling people.



(oops, I'll have to pick that name up and give it a bit of a dusting, didn't mean to drop it... really, we were just talking about it the other day is all)

The top of my snappy list would've been my Childrens. Blackheaded and my 10ft coastal Brutus being the most placid.

EXCLUDES FEEDING

Womas and Blackheads would generally be the most placid along with Bredli and Diamonds.
All the antaresia seem to have a tendency to be snappy.
