Does gender make a diffrence in aggresiveness with ball pythons?

Question

Sorry about my question before.

Answer 1

No not at all they are the same they are very calm snakes as long as you treat them right.

So gender does not make a difference only females get longer then males.

Answer 2

Copy & Pasta: Two year old brother:

Agressive: No, almost all ball pythons take well to handling and are usually very mellow tame animals, this is why they are recommended for begginers. Even so, all animals have different personalities and termperaments. Look for an animal that is alert and curious about you and seems calm.

Gender does make a difference in the lenght of the animal though,female Ball Pythons will grow about 6-12" more than males.

A Ball python will usually not grow more than 5', even if it is a female. They aren't big enough to consider a baby or toddler possible prey; but ball pythons are heavy-bodied snakes, so caution should be advised even when they don't represent a threath.

From my own experience, my nieces are 3 and 5 years old, and they love being able to touch and 'pet' my pythons when I'm around to make sure they're being gentle and don't get too excited and swat or grip too hard by accident. I always hold the python while they touch it, no matter how small it is. Children are curious and will want to touch and see any family pet, if not any animal they can get their hands on.

Answer 3

No it shouldn't. Well at least none of mine has made any difference. You just have to handle them often. But gender does make a difference when it comes to size. Females tends to get bigger then males but only by a foot or 6 inches difference. Hope this helps
