I have had snakes for a long time. I was out of the hobby for years, and now back into it for the past few years. I have one snake that mystifies me. This is a normal sub adult female my daughter won in a charity raffle. The breeder said she was super calm and mellow. Well when my daughter handles her there is never a problem other than the snake being a little timid. If I handle her or go to pick her up she always tries to tag me. Usually the more defensive snakes I've handled are fine once I pick them up. Not this girl. She keeps striking. Never actually connected. I can hand her to my daughter and no striking. Hand her back to me and she hates me. It's the weirdest thing. And no, it didn't just happen once after I was feeding or anything. It happens almost every time I try to handle her. Anyone ever see this? I think she hates me. Lol
