I do agree. Balls are much easier to handle even as juveniles, while corns are flighty as babies. On the other hand, when it comes to breeding I think corns are better. They generally produce larger clutches and of those offspring there are potentially more morphs and tons more hets. Corns are less expensive than balls generally too. The care is roughly the same on the difficulty scale. I see more personality in balls though. Hmmm-I'm always looking to buy more of both so for me its even. I couldn't really choose one over another unless I was recommending a new person with children to a new snake purchase. In that event I'd say balls.
