    Question for the more experienced keepers

    I have an albino jungle corn female. She is 20 months old. I've had her since she was 3 months old. I was holding her one day (this was about a month ago) and my male bubblegum (about the same age) was crawling around his tank so I got him out too. My female immediately started wrapping her tail around him and acting funny. She also emitted some sort of whitish stuff from her cloaca. It occured to me that she must want to be bred. I didn't want to breed her because she's too young and not big enough so I put them in their seperate tanks. Since then she has changed her temperment completely. She was as calm as can be but now she bites every time I get her out to feed her or clean her tank. Is her behavior normal? Will she ever return to the calm snake she once was? My male wasn't affected in any way, he is still as calm as ever. Nothing has changed about her husbandry. Temps are same as always. Cage is the same. Can't figure out what has changed her attitude. Anyone else ever experienced such a drastic change?
