Unnoticed wonder.

How marvelous is it, that the instinct of these wonderful creatures allows them to know how to secure their prey just days after being born? This just baffles me in a good way. Any experiences or wanders of your own, please share.

I'm amazed that we are amazed by it all. Try explaining it to someone who isn't amazed. They don't understand, and you can't explain it to them.

I'm speaking of the whole reptile experience.

Most do but sometimes looks like they just don't know what to do at all

They are amazing and their behavior is always typical and atypical. I have one ball python that refuses to eat in my facility. This particular ball python insist on being in my office in order for it to feed. It is the only ball python I have ever owned that insist on being in my office. The rack in my office was for quarantine purposes. This ball python is officially my “office” companion,

Thats neat! Sounds like a bit of a pain, but still neat. It amazes me how I can tell that they each have different personalities. I have one that KNOWS I will never hurt her, but does NOT like my face for some odd reason. Even while I am holding her, she strikes at me, but only at my face..lol. She is a Mojave.
