Cornsnakes "personalities"

Love My Corn

undefinedI have been off for awhile, but my Okeenee corn has been faithfull ever since i got her as a baby for my now wife's 1st dating aniversery. That was 4 years ago. She is friendly to me, a little hesitant with my wife, and children, but has never attempted to strike. I've even brought her to school and had 2 classes touch her, and she loved the attention. She is a perfect companion!
 
my baby is almost 5 months old now. and he is the sweetest little guy. very very shy, but once you pick him up he just loves to explore everything. he's never bitten, struck at, or threatened me. which i am so thankful for because he's my first snake.
 
My snake is a beast like Marcel's. I feed him every 16+ days but he's still massive due to his extreme laziness. Other personality traits include stupid, inquisitive and delusioned. He thinks he's James Bond.
 
Well, so far my Corn snakes are not the nippy type that I am aware of. If anything they most likely express curious yet very skittish behavior. But fir a more specific itemized list I'll go by each snake.

Gingersnap (Hypo Okeetee) - Ginger tends to be very curious but yet a little hesirtant about the whole handling thing. I will frequently find her always peeking at me or just plain out staring right at me out in the open. She is a little apprehesive about being handled and will freak out, but I think since she's still a baby she just instinctually thinks I am a predator. I think over time she will become a little more acceptable to being handled once she learns I am not trying to hurt her.

Elle (Aztec) - Elle is a little on the shy side, but she is slightly smaller than Gingersnap and O-ren so maybe she's just a tad younger than they are. Most likely she hasn't gotten past the "scared opf everything that moves" phase. She did not take traveling overnight from Florida to New York ery well and added to that was the stress of having to shed her old skin. I do find her peeking out at me every once inawhile so I think she's starting to take babysteps from being shy and skittish to be curious about her new surroundings.

O-ren (Snow) - She is extremely shy and really hates to be picked up from her enclosure. She is constantly hiding. Perhaps as she gets older and gets acclimated to her surroundings and everyday routines, she won;t be as non social.
 
My boy's the Sweetest snake ever! He's gentle and comes right to my hand. I really named him right although he's actually named after the great Walter"Sweetness"Payton. I'm so glad I let my kid talk me into getting a corn, I'd recommend a corn to anyone. :)
 
the female amel is something akin to bipolar, as she's either very friendly and outgoing or very skiddish

As someone who is bipolar, may i recommend lithium or depakote with a bit of risperidone to help with the psychotic features.... :nyah:
