Spotted Python(
Antaresia maculosa), so you're right!
Also, does anyone else have tips for getting her to stop? She's an angel for the first 4 days after feeding (not that I really know about the first 2 as those are digestion days), but once day 5 comes around, she's hungry again and always trying to eat me. I usually try to feed her every 5 days, where I handle her the morning of day 5 and feed her before I go to bed (to try to get the socializing in), but she's having a slow feeding response all over during that day. I try to distract her but she loves to still try to eat me. Since she's meant to be a program animal later on, I want to nip this in the bud and make sure she's handlable any day of the week.
Any ideas on how to get her to stop? It's always after she's been in my hand for a few minutes.
Edit: Also I could try to get more videos of her biting.
She does the typical nosing into me/tiny fast tongue flicks that signal she is interested in my hand, but she doesn't get very distracted by me verbally warning her, tapping her, or trying to move my hand.
