I have a 7 foot Col. Red Tail and she wasn't handled very well by her previous owners, I recieved her with deep burns and rat bites from nose to tail. I managed to help her heal her injuries and thanks to her new shed two weeks ago she is almost completely healed from the burns. But as i have multiple duties through out the day i can not take her out as often as i should so in turn my father agreed to help handle her. I just learned today that he doesnt know how to handle snakes safely and shes either smacked her head on a door frame or he accidently dropped her tail, As of this i went to take her out so i can make sure shes okay and she tried to over power me which is something she never has done. Usually shes one of the most gentle snakes i have ever owned but she pushed me away to get out of her cage and tried to hurrily escape from it. Im concerned because as well as other pets/snakes in the household we also have small children and a 5 month old baby a room away from where her tank is kept. I dont want her to get away one day if someone doesnt pay attention but i also dont want her to be abused or neglected. I love this snake just as i do my other pets but i need help on how to get her to be her old self, shes been showing signs of aggression and if i cant calm her down then i may have to find her a new home which will be my last resort because though my familys saftey in involved i truely want whats better for her. Please help
