I have had a hogg island boa for about a year and a half. she was ill tempered to begin with, but has gotten worse ever since, now if i walk past the cage, she strikes at it. if i handle her, she wants to strike at my face. havent got bit yet, but time is comming...is there anything i can do to calm her down, or are they ill tempered by nature?

thanks
jesse

Just send her to me and avoid any injury, lol.
Just playing.
a lot of them are like that in the beginning & they calm down.
Just get Ur self a good pair of gloves and play with her not bringing her too close to Ur face.
I really like to see this mean little thing, post some pics.
This should work, good luck,
