I guess this is what I meant by experiences and how you raise an animal. Everyone is going to have different experiences with certain animals. Of all of the burms I have raised from a baby to breeding size/age, NONE of them ever showed ANY aggression towards me. The thing is though, I would just about take them everywhere with me while they were very young. They would get handled by many people and just figured out that humans were OK. I see the same thing happening with the retics I am raising now, except for the fact that I cannot stick my hand into their cage without getting struck at. Once outside the cage, however, the are AWESOME. The burms that I have now I can interact with them both inside AND outside their cage. This is just my experience of course. I really believe it is how they are raised when very young, the amount of handling they receive, and a little luck as well. Either way, there is NOTHING more satisfying than taking a 14 ft. monster out for a stroll in your sunny backyard!!
