Some ball pythons just have some latent attitude, I got a yellow belly het gs sub adult and I could hold her non stop and let her lay in bed with me. One day I went to feed my monitor and she threw herself at the cage to try and strike me. Ever since then she's been a mean little pest. I also have a pastel champ sable with the same issue but she's not a sub adult so I think it's just a defense response. I mean we're huge giant monsters to them lol. Handle your ball python more and let it learn to trust you. Just be careful, don't go throwing or dropping in fear.
