Re: jekyll and hyde redtail
Something is ticking her off for sure. Double and triple check your setup. Is there any irritating vibrations or noise around her? Get a nice pair of gloves and reach in there and take her out is my suggestion. Let her strike and then see if she calms down once out.

Re: jekyll and hyde redtail
Something is definitely stressing the snake out. I'd agree with Jimi about vibrations being a possible cause. Is the boa in a higher traffic area or in an area that gets light at odd hours or intervals?
Re: jekyll and hyde redtail
When you set her on the bed, and paid her no mind, she probably felt a lot more vulnerable with so much open space around, as opposed to being held. And I find when I don't pay attention to my snakes while I have them out, that's when they surprise you. Some smell, vibration, movement etc. can set them on the defense. Always be aware of them. Also, if your handling her with fear now because of what happened, she will pick up on that and it will make her frightened if your not as confident. As Jimi said, double check your set up and make sure temps, humidity is good. And give her a little extra privacy, I cover my glass tanks with a scarf to make it dark so the snake feels more secure. Hope this helps.
