The female is still young and scared, still working on her. She's already better than when I got her, no biting anymore and stops hissing soon after I pick her up.
Just work with your animal and you'll see results, I have the impression they're a bit smarter than other smaller snake.
You want a smart snake, get a retic. I swear Caesar knows which door is slid open for food and will camp that door when its dinner time lol. Plus retics literally will watch you when you do stuff around the cages or room. When I'm cleaning the lower cages, Caesar will sometimes come out and peer down over the litter dam and watch what I'm doing below haha. I do want a caramel burm though one day.
