I was at the St. Louis reptile show Sunday and I got my self my first ball python male (168 Grams).
I got him home and tried to let him settle down a bit today I tried to get him out to handle him. So first I pulled him out of his hide and he was in a defensive position, but I picked him up any ways and he tried to tag me.
Is this normal with baby balls having this unsettledness and slightly aggressive ever happen to you?
I believe he might be starting to shed his skin is a bluish tint but his eyes seem alright to me...
Thanks for all the info.
