Just upload the pics to photobucket and post here.

I just got mine a couple of days ago, she was an absolute darling when I held her where I got her from, but when we got home and I took her out from her little bag to place her in her new home she hissed twice and tensed up, so I agree with everybody here I think that really means "please leave me alone now" or "hey you surprised me" and I was not surprised as I was expecting that she would be quiet unhappy right after travelling and everything, so straight away I just left her alone and would not try to disturb her until I am certain that she has settled in and fed a couple of times from me.

I find these forums really helpful and I also recommend some more research online, there is a lot you can learn about them on hundreds of different websites, also you could watch some videos on YouTube they are really interesting.

Good luck

Lol, this made me smile a lot, haha. Honestly the first time a ball python hissed at me I was appalled. I didn't even know they could. I mean my Burmese are like bagpipes they hiss so loud. Well, Diablo anyway. Casara isn't so bad. But seriously though it's nothing to worry about.

I have a bumblebee BP that hisses every time I touch her but I pick her up anyway. I don't let her get away with thinking if she hisses I will leave her alone. She chills out after she's out and we are both happy. I do make sure I stay away from the business end so I don't get tagged though.
