| Tail rattling. S'ing up (when they get into strike position buy forming an s shape near there heads) if your Snake fed it is most likely to be happy! :D |

| they get defensive rather than angry, although you've had her a week she will still be settling in and getting to know you. i've had 8 nearly two months and the cheeky monkey gave me a tail rattle the other day as i accidentaly supprised him. |

just go in and nicely scoop them out, if its a hatchie you wont even feel the bite it will be more like a little headbutt if its a defensive strike. myst (my newest) done this to me when i startled her. they all take time to get used to you but as i said! you must be doing something right for it to eat! xD |
