There's actually a local pet store by me that's got a baby Nic for sale that I'm considering buying. I'm pretty sure it's a pure Nicaraguan b/c first of all it's tiny, and secondly, this pet store tends to know their snakes. I came in today and asked about its disposition and one of the guys told me that it was aggressive. Since it's so young, do you think with regular handling I could turn it into a calm snake? I really just wanted to take it out and hold it to see how it reacted. When I came up to the cage and put my finger near the snake (it was halfway crawling up the glass) it didn't pull back into an S-position or anything, so I'm just wondering if one of the guys was bitten accidentally and then just labeled it as mean. What do you think? Thanks,

-Mack
