My snake likes to come out of her tank just about everyday. She seems to really enjoy just being out and getting to explore my bed and stuff. Yesterday while I had her out she had her head resting on my arm when she suddenly bit it. I was really surprised, because she's never ever even struck me before. Even when I had to handle her while she was in blue she was as docile as could be. I was hoping she was just being a bit weird and I figured I'd leave her alone today because maybe she was feeling too stressed. Unfortunately I had to take her out to switch out her heating bulb. While the new one was warming up I let her do her thing on my bed and when she nearly fell off I picked her up and placed her on my chest. She went down my shirt, which is a thing she likes to do a lot, and then bit my stomach. I'm a little worried now. I think her husbandry is alright, and I think I'm feeding her enough. She's still young, so I'm giving her a small mouse or two (just slightly smaller than the width of the widest part of her body) every 5 days or so. I was actually feeling like I might even be overfeeding her.
She's always been a really docile, nice snake, so if anyone has any ideas why she's suddenly started biting me I'd really appreciate hearing them. I'm really worried something is wrong, or that maybe she really is very stressed when I take her out and I'm not noticing. I don't know.
