| Depends what you're looking for. Try the search first then if you get no joy post the question on here. Glad you did your research, you'd be surprised how many don't then wonder why they run into problems! |

Behaviour-wise, corns are perfect, as hatchlings they may be a little jumpy and fast, but within a couple of months you'll have one of the most docile pets available, I've never been bitten, struck at or even hissed at by any of the corns I've met. They tend to be either completely hidden in a hide, or zooming round their enclosure full of energy  Welcome to the hobby, and the forum! |

I've had it just over a month now, at first it seemed really nervous but the past of week's if i walk in the room it comes up to the glass and start's doing some kinda weird dance at me then climbs up the side of the tank to the lid. If i open the lid it virtually jumps onto me now and does not like leaving me to go onto anyone else, so what i was wondering is do they get attached/used to one specific handler? |

Each person is going to smell different to it, so I would imagine it's familiar with you, and knows you're not a threat, however it will have to get used to other people. That's why I've encouraged my entire fammily to spend time around the snakes, so they aren't scared of anyone.
But I'm no expert, that's just my personal opinion |
