just like to say, when i was thinking about getting a water python, pet shops, reptile breeders, friends who own snakes, had all told me not to get a water python because of the "natural" aggression. i went out and bought a hatchling, wasn't even a month old, he was in shed and was hating the world, but after he shed he was fine, no cage aggression, no signs of aggression, maybe the odd strike here and there
he is now 3 months at 2.5ft and coming for an another shed and his personality hasn't changed. i can pet him on the head around the mouth and he'll just sit there.
not sure if it just him or the fact that i held him everyday for about 30min a day and put him in the bathtub to for a stretch, id still grab him even if he bit me, now i can just grab him out of his home tank.
i personally think the rumour of water pythons aggression is fulse, but i could be lucky and have a really chilled out snake Just thought i had to share thank you.
