Most Florida kings calm down once they get big enough to eat hoppers. So some calm down earlier than others and some lines just plain stay nervous.


Bad temper gets passed down. So do the relaxed ones. Mix the two and you get something inbetween and on either end of the spectrum from a given clutch. Just like you would get from dark to light in color.

in other words it is a line bred trait. If you want relaxed . Ask the breeder what the parents are like. Ask if they calmed down when they were on fuzzies?.. or hoppers..? or if they still thrash and poop when handled.
