Yes, I've got some snakes that will continually strike the side of the container that's facing me when I feed. This is after they've already taken their food. My activity distracts them and they they drop the food to lash out at my silluette as I move about feeding others. If I hang newspaper over the side blocking their view, they settle down and finish their meal almost every time, regardless of my continuing activity.
Many small ones and some new ones do feel vulnerable when feeding. Obviously in the wild, they are more vulnerable at this time. Some are just pigs and nothing phases them.
