    I've been looking for some longer stronger feeding tongs!

    I have that same hook.

    Add to that a good pair of bite gloves for those special days.

    I read through your whole thread on the Wild Boy hahaha. Im glad things calmed down a bit over the last few weeks and I hope this isn’t going to last his lifetime. There is a point I’m not afraid to say that I wouldn’t deal with it. Hope it doesn’t come to that for your sake. I actually let a snake go a few years ago, not because he was dangerous but just because he wasn’t happy in a home with so much going on. Dogs, Teen girls etc...My friend has had him since without any issue in a upstairs room in his house. His kids are long grown and gone and they dont use the upstairs anymore. All his reptiles seem to like it and are laid back. I think some just prefer the quiet less interaction.

    He's better, and thanks for asking.

    I'm fairly sure he's here to stay as long as his growth is about topped off. His demeanor is good out of the cage. I hear this is somewhat common with retics.

    Wallace is more "involved" than the others here and it's not a plus, but we've had very good interactions as of late.

    He's just not a snake you site and watch TV with LOL!

    I'm glad you like the hook!

    Whats he like when you have him out? My Burm is a busy body. He wont stay on my lap like some others would. He wants to climb and he would pull everything off every surface and possibly hurt himself in the process. Is that what Wallace does?

    Very busy,

    I usually keep the interactions short. I suppose I could try to sit with him but his length, even though small by retic standards, is a problem somewhat. If he wraps something, I don't want to spend 15-20 minutes trying to untangle him to get him back.

    I wish I had small empty room here. I may try setting up my 7 foot ladder and letting him climb all over it. I just have to be prepared for him to wrap it and stay on it for longer than I want him to stay.

    Hahahaha... yeah I wish I had a empty room too, or at least a Reptile room without anything he could get into with a door. My house is a open floor plan and the snake room is a 12’x 20’ and all the bedrooms/Bath and the stairwell is off of it so I have to keep watch and move him. He always try’s to go down the stairs and the Dogs are down there...
    he is about 6.8’ now. If I measure him while he goes along the wall he gets strait as a pin hahahaha.
