Temps and humidity are fine.
My snake struck at me (just a tap) for the first time ever after i fed him, Yesterday. I washed my hands every time i handled the rodent or came in contact with anything the rodent had touched, still i just figured it was a feeding error of some sort.
However, this mourning my snake was sticking its little head of its hide as normal (just watching his surrounding) and i put my finger on the glass near his head and HE STRUCK THE GLASS! Ive only had my snake for about 2 months but this is very rare, i handle him everyday and never has he been the slightest bit aggressive. I have no problems holding him near my eyes or face (maybe i do now)
Anyways i haven't held him since he first struck me. The only change in his environment has been a switch to a red spectrum light or w/e its called. It says it does not disturb his sleep patterns or w/e but i have defiantly noticed that i never see my snake out at night anymore. Also, during the day when hes normally trucked away in his hide he now usually sits with his head out of his hide, almost like hes waiting for darkness.
lol when i turn out the lights, he comes out, even in day time... Not really completely out but half his body for sure, this is all very rare to see him out at day i guess.
