    I am a new to snakes and just got my first BP this past weekend. (female Spider BP 101 grams). This might be a stupid question but I noticed if I open the top to her bin to refill water, clean etc. she continually attempts to strike me from inside of her hide box. The temperatures/ humidity is perfect and I am going to try to feed her f/t Sunday. I was just wondering if they are nippy as juveniles will this continue the older she gets. Thanks for any help

    They can be nippy as babies, especially since she's still brand new to your home. Give her some time, don't handle her for a couple weeks and she'll relax in time. Congrats :)

    Indeed, let her be and she'll relax soon enough.
