Hi just getting back into reptile keeping and I thought I get a couple of snakes as I haven’t had them before. My Children’s python hatchling has been very good with feeding and handling, a little shy but no striking.
My Jungle python I got a few days ago is completely opposite. I know it’s early days since change of habitat from tub racking to terrarium but just after some confirmation on behaviour improvements over time. She has taken a pinky rat on Friday night but was argumentative going back to enclosure and since then she has been striking at me when I am close by the enclosure (tonight). I only plan on changing water and possibly a feed next Sunday giving her some space with hopes the striking will settle over the coming weeks
Any advice will be helpful.
Cheers
Dan
