Sometimes they get nasty! ... Join in!

Took a nice shot on the hand from this girl yesterday while I was on the phone with Neil ... serves me right for trying to yap on the phone and take a girl off of her eggs at the same time. :P

Note: Neither this girl nor any of the babies that will be hatching from this clutch are for sale ... just wanted to share a cool pic.

If you have a great pic of a girl getting fiesty as you try and take her off of her eggs (or just fiesty in general), post it up ... lets see how these normally docile animals can get when they want to. ;) :P

Great thread, Adam.

Here's one that I posted recently. She was not a happy camper.

She is very deflaited, is she a normal or somethin special?

~mike

Hah! She looks like she's about ready to eat your lunch!

Were you on the phone making this thread as well? :D

Nice shot Adam and a very pretty girl! I have a female that is nasty all day and night... I'm sure catching her being herself will be no problem at all! :)

This is Hissymy normal reduced female. Notice the glove :mad: :mad: :mad:

When I first got her home and even still shes the one that will hiss and bluff and then some times she'll reaffirm the fact that yes she can draw blood.

I usually don't take the time to find a towel so I either try and sweet talk the girl off the eggs or just man up and take the bite ... I have ADD real bad, so most days when I'm cleaning or feeding I'm getting bit anyway from just reaching into tubs and not paying attention (on the phone mostly) ... ball python bites don't hurt ... although my hands aren't the prettiest looking things in the world ... I think Tyrees gf thought I had some kind of disease when they came to visit and saw all the scabs on my hands. :rofl:

A towel works perfect though ... just cover her up and pull her off slowly. :sweeet:

Adam that girl is in a full on Kung Fu pose. She has tag you written all over her face!

Here is my girl Raquel defending the clutch. (Background music AC DC "If you want Blood!")

LMFAO! apparently she likes rough hands! she always asking about you now!

Adam,
You let me know if anything in that pic becomes a sale item, because that female is smokin. Hope you get some babies that look just like mom. Great pic too.
Congrats,

seriously, count me in, come on Adam no one has to know. haha

I don't want to breed snakes anymore....*thud*. Not for sale?:sniff: Such a pretty stripe. One of the snakey mommas that i am getting a snake from just laid too!:rockon:

Another angry mother about to part with some eggs.(This one was a push over, literally)

I got to thinking...what if Nate met an angry female ON EGGS!!:8:

after the eggs have been removed, what are their temperaments like?

Are they still all pissed-off defensive for a while?

Once you get them away from the eggs and tub with smell they chill out, and don't forget the bath, they love that :D

Sorry Adam, did not mean to get you tagged. But it was kind of funny to listen to. :D

BTW, she is a hot looking mama!!!

Our one female with eggs so far this year was a fraidy cat ....

Neil

Well, being male and all, SoCo has no eggs to defend.. but he hissed at me when I snapped this today! I call it "scarier than starin' down the barrel of a .45!"

http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s...socopissed.jpg

Was it that sort of hiss that says "drop the rat in here lady and back the heck away from MY tank"? :)

Awesome thread Adam! I'm loving these pictures of the females on their eggs. Sorry you got bite, though I know it's no big deal for you.
