    Re: Personality wise, what's your favorite breed?

    They talk about this quite a bit on the corn snake forums & people have experimented a bit with it. Though the ones usually chosen are nippier snakes & it does seem to be at least partly inheritable.

    Why nippier? For ease of feeding? Looks like I've got some reading to do..

    Yes, there seems to be a connection with the most nippy hatchlings, often called hatelings, to be more consistent eaters from the start.

    Very similar observations to everyone else.

    I am amused by the Infernalis' behavior.

    Have one very anti social Radix that must be housed solo or he attacks cage mates, behavior began at birth. He's a real punk.

    An anti-social radix. That's unusual.
