Some BP handling questions

[LittleTreeGuy]

So, I have two questions regarding handling of my BP. Hoping someone can share their thoughts or experiences. Keep in mind, my BP is just 100g, and two months old.



1. Picking up your BP. If I want to hold her, I always have to lift her hide off of her to get to her. Is this normal? I do it slowly, and always pet her a little on her midsection before lifting her, and I've never had any issues. No matter how many times I whistle, she just won't come to me. (Okay, that last line was a JOKE... ) i guess, do your snakes ever come out for you, or is the norm to lift their hide and go get'em?

2. Arm hair... I'm a guy, and have hairy arms. My by will crawl over and through my hands, but about 99% of the time, when my arm hair touches her face, she flenches pretty hard and turns around. Anyone else experience this? I'm wondering if it's something she'll outgrow as she gets larger or not?
