Savu's are typically hardy and easy-to-keep snakes. They aren't like Ball Pythons (picky eaters) and usually are great feeders, though they tend to have a similar size range. Females tend to get a little larger around 4' while males stick around 3'. I have never met an unhandleable one, but I copied and pasted this from a care sheet that I knew of: "The temperament of Savu Pythons seems to vary from individual to individual. Some hatchling being calm, others snappy and feisty. This individual behavior seems to stick with them until adulthood at about 2 to 2.5 years of age. At which time they are calm and easy to handle." Hope this helps!
