Hey all,
So I've got my two corns (Raam'msex and Orochimaru (pronounced like an angry Japanese)) for 8 months now. Everything was great, no problems at all.
Oro (orochimaru) onced (after a meal in his bin) tried to hurl at me, and the lid stopped him. Now, whenever I open the viv to get him, he looks straight at me, as if he is going to try again. never did, and I assume it was just after a feeding.
Raammsex was the opposite. very mellow, THE snake for newcomers, and haters. never tried, even after a feed, always relaxed and very calm on my hands (unlike the other, which feels comfortable from the get go).
Until yesterday when I opened the viv, lifted his hide, and he started twiching the tail like a rattle snake (BTW, how does he know how to imitate a rattle snake, if he's never seen one? ).
since that moment, he won't stop. whenever I try, he instantly shakes the tail.
I know it won;t hurt much, or at all. but instinct takes the better of me. it's easier for me to put my hand in the fire....
why would it start doing this? will it stop?
what should I do?
temps are a bit high I know 22-31C /71.6-87.8 (summer here.,...)
they eat and shed like clockwork.
