I have a Burm cross bred with a Rock and quite frankly, he fascinates me more than any other snake I own. He seems more active and predatory than most snakes Ive experienced, and thats what I like about him. He seems extremely intelligent and I know to have a great deal of respect for him when I handle him. To date he has never bit me (though attempted once!). If he just sat there and was calm and never moved, I don't think I would be as intrigued.
