Rio's change in behavour

[lozzer]

Today i went to pick up rio and spot clean the viv.But she wouldn't let me hold her she was running all round the tank and i think she struck at me once and when i did finaly picked her up she was a fast as hell not wwhat i expected from her as she usualy just sits in my hand and just smells the air.
Whats the matter wit her i usually get that from cuba but he seemed just to sit there watching me like rio used to do and theyve seemed to totaly changed personalitys.

Time of year mate, it's coming warmer and their waking up and looking for a mate (even at 30 odd inches).

Don't worry about it i'm sure it will settle down, and if it put's your mind at ease chocky struck at me the other day, but i got him out anyway and he settled after a couple of min's and has been fine since, i think it's a male thing as both my females never change.

Yer ok i was beggining to think rio was a male as he has a lump and then the tail starts.So i believe the lump is where the hempeines are stored.
