So yeah, I am the newbie that rescued a boa......my first boa. She is about 6 feet, and about the girth of a ball python. Anyways, I held her just fine twice, and then last night, I went to take her out, and seemed really aggressive. So I took a stick, as I have no hook because I only work with balls, and tried to coheres her out, and she bit the stick twice. My adrenaline was rushing big time by this point, (3 years with 7 ball pythons and i have yet to be bit.....I know, right?) but I knew I needed to hold her as much as possible to tame her. I always wait 48 hours for their digestion before I handle ANY of my snakes. Any reason why she would be so much more aggressive now than when I first got her, even with the handlings I gave her???
