Hey Gang...I need some advise. 2 weeks ago my 1 year old male normal Boa got an attitude. Up to that point he was friendly - allowing not only me but my 2 year old son to "play" with him. No issues removing him from his cage or letting crawl round on my shoulders while I cleaned his cage and such.



Then one day he struck at me when I tried to get him out. I thought me might be getting ready to shed so I left him alone till he shed a couple days later. The shed went fine zero retention but he has never come around. I now have to use a hook and gloves to get him out and he strikes wildly at anything that comes with in range. In fact he missed my leg yesterday and got his teeth stuck in the carpeting.



Here are the details:

Cage: 4'X 2' X 20"

Temp: 90 warm side / 82 cool side

Humd: 65-70%

Feed: Hasn't eaten since this all started (ignores FT/ and kills and leaves live)



Please help with any ideas...my wife is very concerned which means he goes or his attitude does.



Thanks

Sean
