I suspected that you might leave them alone. They are actually learning that their bluffing is keeping you away - you're still a huge predator to them.

If they are "S"ing their neck, get something (a water bottle for example) and lightly touch the top of their head to get them to duck their head and just pick them up.

Keep handling sessions short and positive. Ten minutes should be enough, let them learn that you aren't a threat to them, and when they are calm, they get to go back into their enclosures.

You can do this every other day if you'd like, but over time, they'll start to learn that a) bluffing doesn't work and b) you aren't a threat.

Hope this helps!
