So I got my little female BCI a month ago, which now makes her a year old. She's super healthy and all, but we've got one little problem.

She keeps biting my friends. She's never bitten me or my dad, who are the only people who handle her regularly, but two friends have been bitten by her (once in the face!) for seemingly no reason. Once I was holding her while my friend was holding Ramses, and she struck at the hand holding Ramses. We thought the issue might be Ramses, but they've been on the ground together before with no problems. I'm pretty sure the second bite was just a matter of rough handling, especially so soon after eating.

Normally this wouldn't bother me since she's good with me, but there are two issues. One, I planned on using her as an education tool. My friend and I are putting a hands-on reptile show together and she's part of it. For now I can just keep my hand close enough to her head so she can't strike at the kids, but I'd rather not have the issue at all. Second, when she's 9 feet long and 60 lb, a bite to the face is going to be a lot more serious. I'd rather deal with the problem now while she's 2 ft long and just under a pound.

So, any ideas on what the problem could be, or how to stop it? Aside from the handling after feeding thing, that is. That was a bad move on my part, I know it.
