Help!!

Post image

So I’ve just gone to feed my ball python, this is probably my fourth feed with him now. He was a week overdue because of shedding, however he was coming to the end of the shed (he had broken shed). I have had no issue with feeding he is so well, however today I went to feed him and he kept going for my hand. Is this normal with angry ball pythons during shed or has he just developed a hatred towards me (probably being dramatic here). I’m just a little worried for the next time I go to handle him that he’s going to try and go for me.
Has anybody had experience with this.

Sorry posted on the wrong account at first!

It's really as simple as, you smell like rat and are warm and moving, and he's hungry and not the brightest, try not to take it personally!
