I have written a few times about my snappy Stimsons python hatchy Hannibal. He has been here for about 8 weeks and is feeding really well, but is very nervous and snapy around me.
I havent handled him for about 4 weeks just to see if he can relax in that time. But even if I put my hand in the tank to change his water he will snap and bite me. I have tried putting him on my hands but he completly flipped out and goes flying in all directions. at the moment I have to wait until hes in a hide and then put him in another container to clean.
He has pletny of hides, and he is in a click clack with a hot side of 32 and a cool side of about 25. This is my first snake so Im really unsure about handling.
Im happy to wait until hes bigger to try handling again, but I was just thinking ,if i wait and he has basically no human interaction for that long( until hes is a yearlign or so), will he just become feral and harder to tame later on?
Thanks everyone.
