    Yea I wasn't really worried just amazed at the mood change from normal..

    I think she felt bad tho I got home and pulled her out right away and instead of balling or just sitting still while I held her she actually slithered up my arm onto my shoulder and started licking me like a dog I couldn't stop laughing.. She's never very curious when I bring her out but this time she wouldn't let me put her back.. Even coiled my wrist when I went to set her down!

    Im amazed everyday and I truly do believe they recognize ppl and can show affection in a way we will never understand.. These creatures are simply incredible

    I highly recommend that you DO NOT DO THIS! I learned the hard way when Yellow Dude emptied his bowels and bladder on my new mattress. Urates stain, and they readily soak through blankets and sheets, and then you get to spend a night on the couch. :(

    It usually takes me no more then 5 min to change her water and clean up a poop but she will go into a critter keeper for full cleanings..

    All of mine get agitated when they're left inside their tubs with fresh poop for any length of time, and occasionally I get a feeding-response type of strike, (mistaking my hand for food). Never during cage cleaning though, because I have an extra tub available in my rack reserved especially to hold my snakes while I clean their tubs. I never reach for any of my snakes nose-on ever, (took a few band aids to learn that one...ever had a blood python? Talk about a "grumpy" snake!). I mean we are warm blooded just like their prey, and their eyesight isn't so good, so anything warmblooded moving in front of a snake, (any snake), can be mistaken by them for food. I always put one hand out in front to distract them while reaching around with the other hand to pick them up. After I touch them they usually realize they aren't being fed and settle right down. BP's aren't known for their aggressiveness like other species, but any of them can and will bite!
