Very well put Doug, I have noticed the same thing too. Also not only is it individual expressions but between sub species too. I noticed L.t.campbelli usually don't calm down til year 2 and those L.t.blanchardi I don't think ever calm down.Hahaha!

The calmest of milk species that I have had the chance to work with have been L.t.sinaloae, they seem to be really calm even before the first year sometimes right out of the egg. Again, to the OP I agree with everything Doug has said time and patience is key and usually they will calm down by their 3rd year of life.
