    Lol nope I did say that and I posted this video in another section notating this was the only time I had to grab the hook - this girl is not hooked train because she has never had any desire to be aggressive in her tub only during feeding times. The hook was to keep her head slightly back. This is very motivated for her, my Adult male is much different lunging out 4 ft from his cage to try and get anything and everything during feeding day. He does NOT see a hook during a feeding day because he has been and is hook trained. My Super Dwarf Tiger females feeding response is MUCH more aggressive than my Mainland White Albino. The Mainland is more aggressive on any given day in general, but has finally worked down enough that I open the tub and tap his hide then pull him out with just my hand. No more blood drawn from that guy :-). If you click on my channel I have quite a few retic feeding videos. I have one adult female ball that is 10000% Worse than my retics just because she's about 8 years old now and fairly attentive to food :-)

    My purple boy is the same way. Some days I need 4' tongs to be able to feed him lol. He knows when it's meal time so he's waiting at the edge of his tub ready to strike at anything that moves lol.

    Keep in mind, if you feed them slowly to grow them out, it takes years for them to outgrow a 4x2x2 viv ;-) especially if it's a male. Why put off tomorrow what you can do today :banana:
