Exactly all snakes can be unpredictable even though some get known for being a "docile" species. I have a couple of corns that are the nastiest little sods around they go for anything and anyone that goes near their enclosures, yet this species is known for being docile my others fit the general opinion of the species. Yet on the other hand I have a kingsnake that has been so easily handled from a hatcling, no striking musking or anything, only goes for me at feeding time, but this species is known to be a little difficult at first.

When I was in primary shool, going back over 20 years here, there was a man who came and brought a burmese python, and the other one of the same species but is now CITES protected which is known to be a bit grumpy, both were completely placid.
