Hi Dave/ Kerry. Well this is new to me l'll tell you. l fed her with a small m on the day l bought her and she was aggresive. Thinking this would calm her down - big mistake got her out of the viv and she was not impressed calmed down abit and then decided to bite me on the vein in the inside of the elbow - so l fed her again and she took another small m. Now thinking she may have calmed down, l chased her round the viv and took her out and to be fair she wasn't so bad. Well today l thought l'd take her out and wow she stood up up about 6" and was out to get me! She struck at me about 8 times and hissed and it wasn't until she struck that far and came out of the viv that l managed to get her behind the head. Not bad for a 3ft snake. Managed to calm her down and offered her a pinkie but she wasn't interested. l have to ask is this her normal behaviour? Not bothered if it is just need to know what to expect. How is the finger? Thanks Tim

Where's the tag pictures Tim? You've got to share the war wounds when a snake gets you.

Has she calmed down a bit now? I would leave her to settle in a bit if not. Might be a bit scared by the house move.

Cali's are naturally greedy and very food orientated. I must say, Try and not to "treat her" for being calm with a mice, she will then recognize every time you take her out, she believes it's feeding time. Not a great idea, as you have found out! ;)
