Do BPs hiss?

Went to pull a shed out of Daisy's tank and I thought I heard what sounded like a hiss. Definitely scared the hell outta me as I was certainly not expecting that. I pulled my hand out of the tank without even realizing it...

Do BPs hiss or are all my hours of overtime starting to take its toll?

TIA,
Tony

No kidding.. I got the chance to hear a 15' Burm hiss. It was like 20 seconds long. And sounded like a high pressure air hose busted. :D now thats scary.

Whoa I didn't know they could hiss... Do they do it often?

LOL... I cant imangine the sound coming out of a burm.
My BP does the hiss all the time... That's when I put my guard up incase of an attack...

Ok heres the thing.

My het pied male was a hisser and a fake striker when he was young. Now he is just a happy and never hisses or strikes.

My Het Red Axanthic hisses from time to time.

Now I have one a 1600 gram female, named appropriately "Hissy" and she hisses every time is open her tub, take her out, what ever.

so some do it some don't.

Yeah, I had a htachling that would hiss everytime i came close to it for about 3 months, but finnaly she calmed down they always seem to if treated right.

Thats interesting, I never knew that. Hmm I heard a few noises that sounded like a hiss a while back but i never really thought of it...


Pretty Neat

yep!

:cool:

Course the king of the hissers are genus Pituophis. Such a big noise from such a little snake! :)

my pastel female when i first got her let me know real quick how she felt about me, i mean she flattened out with all that air and gave me the meanest look and loudest hiss her little body could manage. it was hilarious.

It's a snake.....it can hiss. :)

I love it when the little 60g babies hiss.

"OMG Scary Python!" I'll be scarred for life ;)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...too funny Becky! I love when little next to nothing Darra hisses mightily at me, then I go look at big butt Brannagh and think..."yeah right!" LOL

My female hisses if you look at her tank, and she strikes at just about anything and is always on guard, I went to go feed her yesterday and she saw the paper bag I drop the mouse out of each week and she just started striking at the air, was laughing my arse off. She hisses if I just open the lid to her tank to change out her water, I just roll my eyes and usually give her a rude comment, lol.

My male, he has only hissed once and it was when he was in full shed and there was no possible way he could see anything out of those eye caps, so I completely understood why he was scared, poor guy was in his hide, then all of a sudden its gone and he knows hes exposed.

My female just thinks shes hot stuff and rules the world... :rolleyes:
