Hello!!! I'm new. Someone HELP! :p
Hey guys!!! I'm new to sSnakeSs and to owning a baby bp.... I thought I was prepared for this, but I think I screwed up...
I just bought a normal baby ball python and I've had him for about a week. I have a lot of friends with BP and I've handled them before so I thought it would be a great idea to get one. When I first got him he was very mellow and easy to handle. I fed him and he was fine. I handled him two days later and he was still very mellow. The other night I took him out and I was playing with him. While I was handling him he started to use the bathroom on me so I put him back in his tank, rather quickly I'll admit, and he hasn't been the same since. I don't know much about snakes, but I know enough about body language to where I can tell he's in extreme defense mode. I know I screwed up, but will he ever mellow out again? Is there anything I can do?
HELP!!!
Thank youu!
