Sounds terrifying! Did you feed those snakes in their enclosures? My gluttonous sand boa has never once been fed inside her enclosure, so I don't know why she would automatically assume that anything moving in her cage is food. I just feed her on top of another cage, and she's actually a lot more calm up there with food right in front of her than she is in her cage with no hint of food anywhere!
She actually shares her tank with two other Kenyans (it's 60-something gallons), but I never see bite marks on them or shavings in Optimus Prime's mouth unless I've triggered a strike, so I guess she knows how to tell the difference between her tankmates and everything else (which falls into the category of "food" to her).
I never could have predicted what a monstrous eating-machine she would become...
