| I know this is a corn snake forum, but I've got to ask a question. The science teacher that introduced me to reptiles had a camelian in his room. That thing hissed and bit someone. Is this new to anyone familiar with these animals? They are so gentle looking...it surprised me. |

All depends on the individual really though 
Seconded. A large yemen at my local was going ballistic when the owner got it out for someone to handle before buying. Very funny to watch when not on the receiving end . |

Ooops! Forgot to mention that. Definately not an animal for those with sensitive, baby-soft skin. Nice to see that the flea count has been dealt with Mike  . |

Thanks for the information. I know what I will NOT be getting for a pet.I'll stick with my Snickers...She is soo gentle and affectionate. I know that sounds strange for a corn, but after reading in here where people have been bitten and stuff to me she is very affectionate.quote:
