    Do ball pythons have bad days?

    I've had my ball python going on 2 months. He's 3 months old.
    He was nervous and hissy from the get-go.
    I've been slowly and patiently working with him. In the beginning, he would ball up, then slither quickly away from me.
    Now he will explore, occasionally he might ball up but he won't hide his head. He will occasionally hiss at me initially taking him out, occasionally he won't. He's also occasionally been very very sweet to me.

    Today though, he was extremely hissy and jumpy. And I don't think he's turning blue either?
    But every time he hisses at me, it breaks my heart a little.
    Will his timidness ever go away?

    My baby hognose on the other hand, very chill from day 1.

    Oh also will add he's a good eater, husbandry is all on point too.
