OK So I decided Last night
That we have had evil elvira bout a month since she bit me due to stress...I have not bothered with her to touch her. Other then to change and disinfect the cage..fresh water everyday sometimes twice, cause the minute she gets scared she runs for the water bowl and soaks for hours. the last time she has eaten was the night before we got her..I keep waiting a few days and re offering but still no luck....I guess she will eat when she is ready....But on with the thread..
I opened the cage and put gloves on just in case. and she showed no aggressiveness toward me with the glove at all.she actually enjoyed me stroking her..(bare with me though remember I am petrified of snakes and since she bit me Im iffy with her altogether.even though it was my stupidity that kinda got me bit.I didnt know they got so stressed with the travel and all. So for 20 minutes or so I just showed her attention with the gloves on.....HUbby comes in takes her out puts her on the bed and pets and strokes her.. BUT she is very very timid....I'm beginning to think she wasn't handled as much as the people claimed....And she stresses out ...she is very jumpy still..and after like 20 minutes he put her back and she was right back to hiding in and under the water. So anyway I guess what I wanted to share was the fact i'm really trying with this snake...Even though she has evil tendencies!
