Not the best picture, but I decided to hold him today, and this is how I was greeted. It didn't improve much from there![]()
He saw the snake hook and started striking it, then made his move and shot straight up out of the tub. When I grabbed him to prevent this, he took a moment to process what was going on, and musked me.
I had a cat glove on one hand just for personal reassurance, since I assumed this would happen and was nervous.
When he realized he wasn't going anywhere, he stopped fighting my hold, struck the glove 2-3 times, then redirected these efforts to my face (of course).
He maintained this focus (defensive, striking pose, tracking my movements) until I put him back in his tub, and when I did, he started rattling his tail.
My impression? A lot stronger and faster than I expected.Definitely more intense than a ball python![]()
I do wonder if this will improve with time or not.
