hi guys not been on here for ages since my first couple of posts on jasper and yoshi.... well they are both doing great and growing quick!!! the only thing is that jasper my male seems to hate me lol.... every time i go near him he rears up ready to strike at me and does the whole tail rattling thing... yoshi my female is the complete opposite... all i was wondering was is this normal for young snakes to b like this or is mine just a bully lol i mean i know they r going to b abit nippy but this is just crazy!!!!?
thanks in advance!!!! xx |

| From seeing other threads along a similar line, it does seem to be a perfectly normal response. How long have you had them? I think all you need to do is keep at it, making sure you don't flinch too much if he does get you (its happened to me, being tagged, and it doesn't hurt at all really, its just shocking!) and just keep at it till he realises you just simply aren't going away! |
