Snake gets Erattic when holding

[PythonOutlaw]

I,ve only had these BP's a short while, still getting used to them, One thing I find strange is when I bring my females out to hold them they get really erratic and start moving very quickly everywhere, kind of makes me nervous so I put them back into the tub after they act like that. the male bee on the other hand loves being held and moves slowly.

Must be a female thing! lol ..

Will they settle down with age? they are still very young

I usually find females are the more calm of the two. But thats just me. Most ball pythons will calm down with some frequent handling. Couple times a week for a few months you should see a noticable difference. Or maybe you just caught some of the females at a bad time. You never know.

Only one of my guys does this, and coincidentally he's also my spider who suffers from wobbling/stargazing. He's just an all-around mess!
