They truly do have their "off" days and each has such a different personality. My corn is the best natured snake of all the different species I have.

So you don't have to worry about hurting your snake as much you can also use one of the plastic coat hangers as a snake hook, which is what I use for my ball python, who is not a good natured snake at all. I use a glove for my ball and once I still had the glove on and went to pick up my corn and lo and behold he coiled and rattled his tail at me. Not what he was used to at all.

I agree with everyone else, he probably is going into shed and is just scared.
