My snake have gotten aggressI've since ive put him contained by a smaller cistern, or is t cos he is realising his strength?
Answers: Several things could be contributing to your snake's aggressive behavior. If it is a sexually mature womanly, she may be ovulating. They tend to show more aggression at this time. And as stated by others, the move could be stressing her out. However, snakes do NOT need a huge cage. The amount of space provided has little to no stance on how easily or economically your snake can shed. You can spend a whole lot of time and money building or purchasing a sizeable enclosure that's longer than your snake, but here's what'll take place; your snake will pick a favorite hide box or corner, curl up, and not move until it's time to be feed. Lots of wasted money and space. Snakes are closely more comfortable in a smaller barred enclosure. There is such a thing as too small, though, so put together sure the snake does have plenty room to at least carry out of a balled up possition. For instance, a good sized stall for an adult globe python can be as small as 37" long by 17" wide by with the sole purpose 8" tall. The snake will be as long 50". A snake that size would not do in good health in a ten gallon aquarium, though. Do some research on your snake and see what breeders and experienced owners of that species vote that your snake should be housed in.
Another problem may be if you don't own anywhere for your snake to hide. Snakes that discern vulnerable will stress out and become agressive. Make sure he have a place to hide within that will cover his entire body.
If your snake is getting ready to shed, it'll become moody. Shedding is a stressful time for snakes. Try going away him alone for a week or two.
It could also be if you have a young-looking snake. Young snakes naturally fright that everything is out to eat them. Just be lenient and handle him thoughtfully, even if he bites.
Uhh, ever heard of spell-check? I can't recount what you're asking...
