My bp seems perfectly content in my right hand, and with exploring up my right arm, but if I hold her with my left or if she senses my left hand at -all-, she goes a little crazy and feint-strikes at it.

Today, I was holding her in my right hand, and she was seeming to be more relaxed than the past couple times I've held her, so I relaxed my hand on my lap so she could explore my lap and torso like she sometimes does. My left hand didn't even twitch, or move, or anything... and all of a sudden, she's a squirming little thing, half curling around my right hand/wrist protectively and feint-striking my unmoving left hand.

When I gently lifted her by my right hand (still not moving my left) and put some distance between her and my left hand, she calmed down.

Has anyone else experienced a snake that hated a part of you?

She's young, estimated at 20 inches, but I'm not sure how much she weighs. She's only big enough to eat adult medium mice or rat hoppers. (25-35g)

She was fed on Saturday and it's now Wednesday, so she shouldn't still be tense after eating. Also, she's never struck, even a feint-strike, at me while she was in her terrarium. Always when she's out of it.
