I have raised several of the carpet species and found some individual snakes to be very calm and docile, some were just "ok", and some total demons that would never tame. Yes, with lots of patience and gentle handling most snakes can be tamed but the reality is some won't. I am a firm believer in the concept that calm babies grow into even more calm adults. I raised a female jungle carpet that was beautiful but she would not tolerate any handling. I then bought a second JCP female of which the breeder stated that she had never attempted to strike him from birth. She is one of the rare carpets that I do not need a hook to remove from the cage but just reach in and take out like a boa. Bill
