Anyone care to post pics of adults? Any info on them as well? Are they "nervous", "flighty", "fear-biters" or otherwise a chore to handle? Most of my experience is with various kings (4 species), corns, & one each of a eastern garter, northern pine, and columbian boa... so I am thinking an old world rat might be a bit different than I'm used to... I'm used to the snake holding me as I hold it (exception with garter, which I rarely handle anyways)and I'm used to not being bit (though the pine and boa each got me once)... different can be good, but I want to make an informed decision.

Thanks in advance,

Zach
