I got a hatchling blood at the Hamburg show on Saturday. The guy I got it from said it was a CB female (they had 1.1 for $85 each). I held it at the show and it didn't try and strike or anything. I then got it out in the car on the way home and for some reason it kept striking at the snake bag I had laying on my lap. I don't know if it was the vibrations from the car or something, but after I moved the bag she went back to crawling around on my hand. After a couple minutes I put her back in the bag. When I put her in her tank, she just laid near the side and would do a closed-mouth strike when I walked by. It was actaully pretty cute. She'd stop right before she hit the glass and flip over. I've been leaving her alone, and I'm going to try feeding her tomorrow night. I haven't held her since Saturday, but so far I like her more than my Ball pythons and about the same as my boa. Hopefully next year I'll get a pair of Black Bloods.
