Re: New Female - Feeding Shots
Wow, she's a grumpy one aye John? Has she always been so hissy? My 2 bulls will rattle their tails a little if I disturb them and the younger one used to huff and puff but they grew out of it pretty quickly. She's a nice sized girl and sounds pretty intimidating.

Depends how much you work with the snake but out of my 7, which are only handled for maintenance, just 2 are hissers. None of mine are biters though, they're just very audible snakes when annoyed. Even my most aggressive hatchlings grew out of biting within the first few months under general maintenance. They only do a bit of tail rattling now when I move them for cleaning.
Re: New Female - Feeding Shots
I'm with you John, usually all they need is a little work. I handle mine a few times a week and they're both really mellow now. The male I have would hiss, strike, and bite in the beginning but now he's putty in my hands. I do love their defensive displays though.
