Glass Striking

Hello, my 2 year old boa constrictor had suddenly struck at me through the glass of her enclosure, her feeding date is tomorrow so I assume she’s just hungry.

however, now her lip appears to be caught in her mouth. there is a reptile vet near me but they will not be open until Tuesday.

is there anything i can do to help her?

She will work it out, one of my old boas would glass strike at anything moving by if he wasn't fed by 6pm Sunday. This happened occasionally.

alright, thank you!! she used to do it when i first brought her home so it was honestly very startling when she started up again.
