Balls are docile by nature but every single one of my CAPTIVE BORN BPs act differently. I have some that have an insane feeding response and some that shy away from everything. Some like to hiss and bite some like to come out and see what's going on (look and see if it's food before you bite it!).

Comparing a ball python to a columbian boa is silly...I have a 6 foot columbian boa that is "very sweet", but you have to watch yourself around him...he's a boa.

So yes the majority of balls may be docile by nature, but they don't HAVE to be.




>>Has ever Evan stuck at me and all my sand boas are the same as a mater of facked the only one that has stuck at me is a rescue Columb.Red Tail Boa. and BALLS ARE DOSILE BY NATCHUR and unless some thing is wrong should be happy and comfortable in there surroundings and should not strike unless maybe W/C . There are the exception but should be few and far between.
