I have a King snake, and if you hold it by the beardies tank, they get PISSED!!! Puff out there beard and open their mouths... They DO NOT like the snake.

yeah i know that they dont like snakes its the first time that i was holding my snake away from the tank and he got all pissed and was hitting the glass.when i put the snake away he was still mad when i tryed to touch him he ran then tried to bite me.he isnt to nice to begin with he hates being picked up but once i get him hes ok hes 17 inches right now.the cage i got has a sliding glass front so im not reaching in on him to pick him up but hes still goes nuts when i try to get him

Wow... sounds like your little guy is in a bad mood... Mine have only gotten pissed if the snake started slithering over by their tank. Hopefully yours will relax. Good luck!

Once I held my candy cane cornsnake up to my beardies cage and he didn't puff up, he tried to eat him! But he does puff at popcorn and my snake plushie.

A few generations back their relatives were trying to scare off king brown snakes and death adders! Australia is a tough continent for a lizard.

I think it's just in response to other animals in general. My dragon will try to eat my smaller snakes when they're out, but one of his favorites past times when I lived at home was chasing my mom's cats away if they got too close.
