New Dog In The House...

[Julius]

Hello everyone, i am a proud owner of a baby cornsnake. I have had her for about 8 months now. have been very happy with her and never had a single problem. she is fed regularly and held almost every night. but for the last few days she has been acting strange, every time i go to pick her up she will rattle her tail and sometimes strike. so ill leave her alone for a few mins the pick her up and she is fine. sometimes she just wants to get away, so ill just put her back in the viv. the only thing i can think of is we got a puddle a week ago. could maybe the scent be causing this?

PS: ill post a pic of her later, Maybe someone can help me identify just what kind she is lol.

Thank you in advanced :):bouncy:

We have all sorts of animals in our house. Corns rattle their tails when excited, one of mine does it when he gets food :)

Its perfectly normal, just pick him up anyway :). Smooth confident movements tend to stop strikes
