Yes, I think they are beautiful! It makes me so sad when others mistreat their reptiles.Trogdor80":9bc80 said:Bloods are quite snappy, at least the rescues I had. Of course a rescue that was raised by someone that didn't know how to care for or handle reptiles would be more snappy than a hatchling raised and handled by a experienced herp the whole way.
Bloods have a beautiful pattern though.

Bloods have a beautiful pattern though.There is also a good chance your rescue was wild caught. I am getting a CBB for sure.
Trogdor80":c40c8 said:Yeah, especially a rescue back in the '90s. But seriously, the regular basic color and pattern of a blood, especially a red blood, looks like something that would be a designer morph in another snake.

I held 1 of my pet rats earlier in the evening and then my bf being so (note sarcasm) brilliant freaked out because my bp female Sin had what he thought was missing scales ( because he never listens when I mention her flames). So of course he hands her to me and i'm just relaxing holding her telling him yet again what they are. All of a sudden he's freaking out telling me she bit me which she didn't exactly, she bit my shirt which thankfully was a thick sweater because lets just say i'm not into nursing snakes. So I yelled at my brother to keep his friends out of the living room and stripped off my shirt. She refused to let go for about 3 minutes and i'm so bright i'm sitting there trying to explain to Sin that it's a shirt not a rat :shock:
I was amused and reminded never wear the same shirt around both species :lol:
