Every snake is different, I would say it is more likely that she just doesn't like to be held, or doesn't feel safe, rather than having some issue. Hope this helps!
It helps, it just struck me as weird that she would do that. I have held other boas that didn't do what she is doing, but you are right every snake is different. Hopefully it is just that she doesn't like being held and nothing more is wrong, because I'd really like to produce some baby boas in the future. I want a leucistic boa, I know the fires are quite pricey right now but I still want one. But I digress, thank you for your input.
