An 11' hissing Boa? That must have been quite un-nerving, my friend. Fortunately, mine is only about a foot and a half long right now. I was at a pet store earlier in the evening, and was handling a lot of different snakes. I'm beginning to think that maybey he smelled the other animals on me and got scared. Further, I think he might be getting ready to shed, who can say for sure? You make a valid point when you say to never get complacent or too comfortable handling these animals. I was just a bit taken aback by his behavior, he's normally very docile. I'm sure he will be fine. Thanks for your input.
