Have no fear, he's completely normal. Just like us, some 'baby' snakes are more nervous than others, but much has to do with what they've gone
thru so far in life. Remember their instincts keep them alive in the wild...anything that picks them up is normally a predator that's about to EAT them, so of course
he's scared & defending himself the only way he can. They also don't rely on vision to identify us...more by scent & touch, so don't be surprised if he still doesn't
think you're his pal from any distance. If they were all the same, they wouldn't be nearly so addicting anyway...But stay patient while he learns, & keep in
mind that they may still have a different personality.
