Alright Guys and Gals,

My snake 'Frank' is perfectly happy with me, no defensive or aggressive behaviour. On the other hand he has taken a few pop shots at my lady. Usually when she is putting him in or getting him out of his viv. He is perfectly fine when he is out being handled its just in the viv. Any ideas as to why?

Because that's when you are picking them up etc. Invading their personal space, when they are young they are more likely to defend themselves until they learn that you are not likely to harm/kill/eat them. Different people smell differently, your other half could put an item of clothing in the viv to let Nippy McNipster get used to her scent (just tell her she smells lol).
