i'd say it is most likely her being in shed. I feed all my snakes in their cages and they never get agressive towards me...well one time it happened but that was my own fault. I was defrosting a couple fuzzies under the lamp on top of the cage and he was smelling it getting hungry and he saw my pinky in front of the cave thought it was food and did a closed mouth strike...kinda funny though.

but yeah give her time...how often do you handle her? I'll say my most strange experience was with my black rat snake. i would handle him for 3 days straight and he was getting calm by the third day...then i fed him and picked him up and it was like he had totally regressed back to being afraid of me again. just give her time. she'll come around. but DO NOT stop handling her. If they dont have a lot of human contact, they will regress.
