It’s what we call an eating machine. Usually I would see mine point their face down and start “smelling” me just like it would do to a rat when finding the head, and that’s the clue that it was about to make a grab. Almost in slow motion. I think you can handle it in such a way that it knows you are not food, the way you are touching it, suspending it, etc. You haven’t created a great pet snake, but boy he looks like a great breeder. Very beautiful snake. You could probably work with him and get him to stop associating the interaction with you as total food association, but the snake probably could care less about you, no offense. Be happy he’s a great eater. Real stunner, actually.
