Adopted a 7yo female for first snake and she has been super docile but she hissed ate for the first time. I fairly sure as to why but wanted input. I have five kids and have been slowly introducing each of them to our snake over the last few weeks. Tonight was my 4yo step daughters turn and she was the only one be nervous. I took the snake back from mom and she tried to go undery pillow and when I pulled her gently back so she didn't go under the bed I thought I heard a hiss. I wasnt sure that's what I heard and continued to hold her. She seemed calm and was laying on my chest kind of poking her head slowly around when she got im my face. I have no fear of her so I let her explore and she tried to get intoy beard she definitely hissed! She backed away slowly so I don't think she was startled. I'm sure it's no big deal but I'm just not happy with the fact I may have let her get upset.
