He just sounds scared to me. Normal for young snakes, they're small & easily preyed upon, & in their hide, they feel cornered when you move it...that's the
only "safe" spot they have. It takes longer than a month to overcome instincts & feel safe with a human picking them up...and you should stop wearing that
hawk-mask & file your fingernails...& try not to "swoop" in, lol.
