New CRB. need help

[radpug]

so ive had this lil columbian boa for 10 days now and ive tried limiting messing with her but i tried feeding her today with no luck and she just stares at me with a menacing look. at the 5 day mark i opened her cage and stroked her belly and talked to her and she did nothing for a couple minutes and then striked at me.

should i let her be a few more days? or try to handle her?

Are you feeding her in her enclosure or a separate tub? Live or f/t?

[Scottywelsh]

Let her settle in for a bit longer. Give her 5 -7 days without touching her, trying her with food or even pressing your face up against her viv lol. She'll come around just takes time sometimes

i tried feeding her f/t in her enclosure and a separate one and she wasnt having it, i finally found somewhere to buy live pinkies and im gonna try feeding her tonight. shes warmed up to me and im now able to handle her without her striking

find out from the breeder what they were feeding her. if they were starting with live it may not be ready to go on f/t yet. also what kind of pinkies? mouse pinks would be way to small for her imo. rat pinks might be about right tho.
