I must be the only one........

After reading the post down below about BP bites and all the replies I must be the only one that has a bunch of mean a$$ ball pythons. I'd say out of the 45ish I own, about 15 of them have either bitten me or will try when working with them. I have one female that is worse than any retic I have worked with. She will do multiple strikes as soon as I start pulling out her bin and won't stop until I'm away from the rack she's in. On a side note though, she's also one of my best feeders and is an 05 over 1000g so at least it's not just me she likes to bite, lol.

I find that about 99% of those I come in contact with are calm. The meanest are imports. Those are the 1%. Although, I sold a hatchling to a guy that went bonkers. She hissed and struck at him like crazy. I have never seen anything like that before.
