Feeding/Behavior Issue

So, I have been feeding Junior regularly (once a week) for many months now. She is about a year old, and I am unsure of her weight (she was at a healthy weight last month, according to the vet) Recently, a day after her feedings, she has been striking at her window when anyone walks by. She becomes extremely tense. I don't keep her covered, as she is used to movement. She continues to strike until I cover her up.

Is this her still being hungry, or is she, for some reason, now startled by the normal movement of me being home? I am unsure to feed her more, because I don't know if she is big enough to handle 2 mice. I feed her 1 live once a week. her temps and all that jazz are perfect, i just want to make sure she is well fed, if that is the case.

Has anyone else had this problem, or could anyone offer advice?

Well the striking after feeding could be a bunch of different things.

1) Its not unheard of for a snake to still be in "hunt" mode the day after you feed and strike at people who pass by.

2) The snake could possibly feel vulnerable on a full stomach and in an attempt to defend itself from the big predator (you) it strikes when you pass by.

3) If the tank is in a high traffic area with alot of people walking by all the time it could be stressing her out causing her to be defensive.

In order to solve this I would cover the tank with a towel or something to provide cover for the snake, or move the tank to an area that doesn't have too much traffic.

As for the feeding issue a general rule is to feed 1 prey item the thickness of the thickest part of your snakes body once a week. If the mice you are feeding him do not meet that criteria and are much smaller I would try to attempt feeding 2 mice.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
