You will be fine. All of my snakes dont go crazy unless they actually smell food. Then they are all dangerous. Otherwise i can reach in and grab anyone and its fine. Heck my retic is so foody that after i fed him a jumbo rat, he went to take a drink and while drinking, i figured that would be a good time to quietly slide a door open and pull his feeding cardboard out. Well he felt the door open and came flying over, mouth open and spitting up water all over lol. He didnt even care about swallowing the water, he just wanted another rat lol. But once there is no food and his food drive is off, he literally will come over and sit on on my arm. I had him on the floor while i was cleaning his cage and he came over and was trying to climb on me while i was working on his cage. Never seen a snake act like that before. He seems to actually like attention.
