aggressive corn snake

Question
I had a corn snake now for 6 years who is about 17 years old.  She has always been very gentle and docile, but has recently become a bit aggressive and very hungry.  Last week she bit me, which was a shock.  I fed her 2 mice this week in one feeding and 2 days later she is still hungry.

I got a ball python a month ago who hasn't eaten.  They are not in the same cage, but near each other, could that be the reason.

Answer
Hi Nicole,

I can't really say what is wrong with your corn snake. It may be that she is old.

As for your ball python. It may take a little bit for it to get used to its new environment. Just keep trying to feed, it will when it,s ready.

Hope this helps.
