    What was I thinking!?!

    Well we already have a female RTB, and I'm a member of freecycle. Yesterday I saw the add & called. It was for a 2 y/o male? RTB,the gentleman said it used to be calm & that he used to wear him around his neck yada yada yada, long story short, I brought him home, thankfully I took gloves with me, he tagged me like 5 times, (no snake hook)

    I set him up in a tank in another part of the house (QT).

    I now have to get a snake or make a snake hook to begin hook training/handling him in about a week. This is the first time in in a long time that I've had to deal with such a nippy snake! All my balls are so docile. Wish me luck

    Here are some pics of my new feisty little fella

    No, he has a piece of stuck shed on his head, that will come off with the next shed.

    I think he'll calm down just fine. He's probably been neglected.

    Had him out tonight for like 3 minutes, he did well no hissing or striking , will continue holding for small bits and see if he continues to do well.
