Neptune progress!!

That is just awesome.

One great way to start getting him to allow handling is use a snake hook to get him out. It is really amazing how much calmer a mean snake can be using a hook.

I have had snake that were ruled to mean to handle and had them calm with one session by using a hook and proper technique.

All buy my former Mangrove, he was just an *******,

I gave him to a guy that just had to have a mangrove. After a year and a half that jerk made no progress, just mean as all get out. Almost like he enjoyed being mean. He is someone elses problem now,

That's wonderful Sheree.. he's quite the impressive dragon!

He needs to talk to Rusalka I think.. my little She-devil.

I dunno if letting them talk things over would help or hinder us, Shelby!

It's amazing how a ton of patience can pay off. The hook is a good idea, but there's not a whole lot of room for that where I am now. When we move and get a room just for teh snakes, then maybe I can get a nice hook and see what Neptune thinks of it. In the meantime, I'm just glad he's relaxing!

Hehe, "Carpet" that's adorable! Course Karen wants to get a gopher snake and name him or her "Leezurd" so who are we to talk?

And awh, Mangroves are so pretty but woo I wouldn't want to mess with an angry venomous dude like that! Back fanged or not!
