Hey all I've posted before in the pituophis forum but my favorite animals are my getulas cal kings especially as they were my first successful breeding project when I was a teenager about 15 years ago! Anyway I have this male Brooksi about 10 months old now I've had since he was just 11". He's now a beefy 39" and has always been the most laid back animal until about a week ago. He was in his enclosure and outta nowhere just started racing around like somebody was after him. Then the other day I was holding him n he bolted again. Now instead of wrapping up my hands he acts like a baby milk snake. IDK why he's so wired now alluva sudden. I wash my hands between holding snakes and there's nobody else near him. I've never seen a snake go from chill to infinity even ones I caught in the wild as a kid. Has anyone ever had a sudden change like that? Haha should I burn sage over him while speaking in tongues? Dunk him in holy water? This is a snake who teaches kids and seniors in my reptile society and one that I handle alot at home. He eats his furry veggies every week but it just worried me when he had those little mini freak-outs.
