If I could tell you one thing about white lips it is that they dont stress out like other pythons. The only other snake ive seen this in is retics. Absolutely heartless; bite you one second and forget about it. Unlike a snappy GTP, you can pick a white lip up every day, really resiliant animal. I think people will soon realise they are the "choice" python, due to their dull (patternless) appearence, yet STRIKINGLY beautifull colors!! And when they shed, look right at their SOLID black heads; I swear you'll see more colors than the rainbow.
Oh yeah, watch out, they hiss like theres no tomorrow. My tame white lip wont even bite at all anymore, but he still hisses. Not real hisses, just explosions of excited air. Dave barker said its a friendly thing
