    If it's been more than 48 hours...and you're truly worried about getting the cage cleaned out...then I would recommend going for it. When you reach for her, try not to approach her from the front of her face, but from behind. Don't hesitate...just pick her up. More likely than not, she'll calm down right away and either ball up, or want to explore your hands.

    Once you get over that hurdle of fear, I think you'll feel a LOT better about taking care of her. ;)

    Usually it's not this wierd to handle her....i haven't had any fear of her at all....but her responsiveness to my hand is very quick and that isn't like her...but then again she hasn't had a normal setup and for the first time someone (ME) is trying to straighten out her comfort....I just don't want to upset her....and get to know what she is really like.....but it's wierd I don't think anyone really knows her....she has never had a steady atmosphere really so I don't think she's ever really been herself for anyone.

    Ya, I'm worried about that too....because I am getting her setup changed I'm wondering if she ever really had the right feeding schedule....actually she shed for the second time since JULY just the other day....I kinda thought that was pretty recent....but I'm not sure what the deal was with that.....however she shed well....and that was after I bathed her and got the humidity up....

    ummm....like things have been the same....but it's my mother in-laws house...I just moved here....and moved Gypsi upstairs with me so that I can monitor her better....You know that's been the problem cause I haven't had the chance to get to know the snake yet...and everyone else did the best they could....but not good enough.....not researching and just figured feed her when she comes out and she'll live, but now I'm teaching them from my own research that she is a pet....needs special care....you know.....and not just stuffed in a cage and fed every now and then.
