It's the snake species nature to have their young venture out on their own at near birth. This is to prepare them for the world, and it's the reason why they're so strong. Curtis even explained the danger of keeping the babies for too long, both for their survival and for their mentality, and he and Bai have already been keeping them for too long. Plus, you have to remember that these guys are ultimately animals, bit human.
