The babies are are almost always defensive. They hiss, huff, and strike at just about anything. However, with a just a few weeks of gentle, regular handling they become as docile as bci. I've never seen a 12ft argentine. I'm not saying they don't exist, but my biggest female is about 9ft, 40 pounds.
