Need Advice on Handling Milk Snake
I don't handle CiCi, my apricot pueblan, too much, because she has always been a nervous snake, but today I moved her into her new exo terra terrarium and she took great exception to being handled. I almost lost her, only had one hand on her, she was squirming so much, then she musked me. Thank goodness I got her safely into the new home.
I have had her about 1 1/2 years and she has never acted quite so bad when I would take her out to clean her cage. Only one time, when I lost my grip again and she bit me that time.
I am becoming more nervous about handling her in the future when I need to clean her terrarium out.
I am open to suggestions about how to handle a nervous snake.
