When I do this I let her climb to my hand first and move her to a different container and it always went smoothly. But what happened this morning was she was climbing on my hand then she was sinking her fangs deep into my fingers. I'm pretty sure that wasn't some angry biting as she was still moving gently. I had to return her to the enclosure and she still had her fangs in me. I gently prodded her back to the enclosure and she finally walked away from my hand.So, do they grip with fangs? Or was she actually angry?</blockquote>
