:i have a cali king and ive had ball pythons. i have an emperor scorpion as well so ive got some experience at keeping humidity up. i either want an ATB or a GTP, but ive heard that ATBs are extremely aggressive :( are GTPs more docile? thank you. also, if someone could direct me toward a good caresheet, id appreciate it :D thanks again.

dont go out and buy a gtp expecting it to be tame, they do not like being handled anyways. they are not interactive snakes, they are more of a display animal. besides that, a lot of captive bred snakes are ok with humans, with some exceptions. almost all imports are aggressive. most atb's are aggressive although i do own one that is hand tame. (not that i handle it anyways), good luck
