All the males pictured and the female labeled "Dad's sister" behave pretty much like corn snakes. They don't threaten or try to bite when removed from their cages. I don't remember them ever defecating when handled. The one labeled "Dad" above prefers live animals. The rest, females included, will eat frozen/thawed.

The gopher female and her daughter hiss and threaten when I open their cages. Once in hand, they're no problem as you see in this picture of the daughter. I expect they would defecate if handled for any lengh of time. Bull snakes will do that when they get tired of being handled.
