By chance, were you wearing a bright RED or ORANGE shirt? I heard of someone who had the same problem - went to handle their normally docile snakes and suddenly it seemed ALL of them wanted to strike him. He was wearing a red shirt. He changed it and they seemd to calm down and go back to normal.

If both snakes are suddenly acting funny, maybe there is some smell that is out of the ordinary in the room (house mouse? cologne?).
