ok so i got my snake 2 weeks ago and havent picked him up more then like 2 so i went to clean out my cage today and went to pick him up and he started hissing and shaking his tale and striking at my hand i think hes a wanna be rattle snake i fed him 5 days ago could he be hungry or is he just plan crazy?
 
sounds normal for a young snake, my normal hatchling was doing a cobra impersonation tonight, she struck me about 5 times before launching herself at her pinkie
 
lol

yeah i just put a pinky in there and it stuck open its stomic and its intestins were faling out to bad he ate it or id post pics
 
Feeding your snake in its enclosure might worsen this behavior. If it learns to assosiate the top being taken off and your hand with food it will go into "hungry food" mode whenever you open the top.
That's one of the reasons why it's good to feed in a seperate enclosure. Kritter Keepers arnt hard to find at petstores and they're pretty cheap.

ps: get a camera!
