Haha!

My olive hatchling certainly fit that description! It should definitely get your adrenaline going, for sure!

He has mellowed out very nicely since those days, though!

you might want to consider the bucket loads of feed an olive will consume over time. They are eating machines. How often do people argue over $300 verses $500 per head which is insignificant given feed and caging costs.

Not sure if you are interested, but southern Cross Reptiles in South Australia has a few male olive hatchies left for a reasonable price, I just bought mine $440 + $50 freight (they are still holding him to make sure his feeding is good as well as first shed) if you go to their website there is pictures of the parents there. I am excited, I cannot wait till mine comes home to Melbourne. I also am waiting for answer back about a female Darwin to go with my male, so will be breeding next season with them or maybe the season after that, just wait and see what weight they come to before coming to conclusions.

see quote before about Southern Cross reptiles.

And to answer your question?
Olives are one of the most placid/Docile pythons in Australia, with a few having food frenzies, which they think everything is food food food

........Again it is all up to the handler as well, neglect your snake and it will let you know it when you do get that urge to take it out of its enclosure to show it off, but a consistent handling(not over handling though) usually turns out a pretty good companion (all this information excludes the pyscho water pythons, and pain in the **** scrub pythons).

My Darwin, whom people say why a Darwin, they are snappy, has yet to bite me since the day I bought it, I saw it bite the seller, but once I got it home I settled it in for a week, and then slowly got to know my Darwin and let it get to know me, I never left its enclosure that second week with it in my hands.
