I'm starting to get a little scared now! How old (big) were yours when you got them? Mine still hasn't struck or puffed up but since they strike with no warning, I should probably be a little more cautious. He really does seem to recognize me once I get him out of his cage. He doesn't strike or race away when I put my hand in his cage, but once I touch him, he will try to run until I get him completely out and he realizes he is sitting on my hand. Then he calms down just fine. He likes to "sniff" my glasses when I am wearing them, which is apparently a bad habit that I will stop now, since I'm starting to realize that I am not fully appreciating this snake's attitude. My albino corn really spoiled me as a first snake because he is so tame - he's like a snake's version of a labrador retriever. I am glad I got the Radiated, though, he will definitely be different then the corn snake.
