May sound like a silly question but do snakes get grumpy like we do when they get hungry?

I know that when my blood sugar level drops I get a right grump on. Just wasn't sure if the same applied to their metabolism too. She was being fed 1x small rat every 14 days. Was wondering if changing that to every 10 days it might help her to cheer up and chill out a bit.
