Your snake is still very young, probley has'nt settled in yet and is still frightened of that big scary hand. Just give her time and she will settle down. Getting bit by a small corn wont even break the skin, so its nothing to worry about.

yup, I've been bitten by snakes twice the size of a 3 month old and they couldn't break the skin. It's nothing to worry about - except that it's quite startling.

If you're really worried, standard advice here is to put on some gardening gloves until you've got your confidence back. But I really doubt she'll bite you at all.

Chances are it will be because the snake thinks your fingure is food. They are do this when they are small but they will grow out of it.

Also dont be scared of it biting you because REALLY it does not hurt and you probobly wont even feel it.
