Rosy Boa Treats My Arm Like Food
I've had my rosy for more than 10 years now. She's always been a very docile snake and I've never had problems handling her with my bare hands, except for recently. Lately, if her head is resting on my arm, she sometimes slowly opens her mouth and latches on and proceeds to coil around my arm and squeeze. It's a bit unpleasant and I would like it to stop. I've been handling her for the last few days with gloves and long sleeves to see if I can just condition her out of it. I haven't yet tried removing the gloves or sleeves.
Any tips for getting this behavior to stop? I've tried washing my arms and hands, but it doesn't seem to work.
