@7muktar Alot of them do, normally WC and rubbing that does it

I was going to get one a few weeks back but ended up with a Nicaraguan Boa. You can hold them but be careful. They are rear fanged but their delivery system isnt to good, but they do have a nice venom potency.

@redtailedpython Indeed i have done my research i have also seen what they can do to people when bitten, i have handled mine before with hooks and without but its not something i want to promote on youtube with poor delivery or not they can cause some damage =]
