Hiss!

Our little het albino male, Malachi, will hiss if you are removing him from his comfy hide but hey I figure I'd hiss too if I was happily hanging out and some giant grabbed me up LOL. He doesn't strike then but will do so on feeding day but again, I'm happy as that just indicates he's ready to go and has a great feeding response. The only other hisser in the house is one of our females, Kyna, who will occasionally do this slow, quiet hiss if you bother her. I swear it sounds like the equivalent of a snake sigh...as if to say..."lord it's those idiots again" LOL. We call it her "hiss off" hiss.

Yeah softbill hisses are cute and all.. but I was bitten by an umbrella cockatoo once.. parrots scare me, but I just love them anyway. :rolleyes:

Harry the burm and Julinar the suri hiss like there's no tomorrow, but neither has ever offered to bite. They're my talkers.

My group has never hissed YET.Probably will soon.

I have one girl that hisses at me if I don't give her enough warning, and only during the day. She doesn't like her beauty sleep disturbed. ;)

Lola hissed the second day we had her. We brought her out and she saw Mickey (my cat) and hissed. Freaked Dan out. I started laughing cause I couldnt believe the snake hissed rather then the cat. Maybe it was Dans imagination cause I didnt hear it.


Now Mikey takes a nap every after noon in Khan and Lolas room on a recliner that sits right across from Lolas tub. I sometime catch her moving around on that end but since then I havent heard any hisses.
