With my ball python, I make sure to train it not to recognize my hand as food, but instead when it sees the feeding pliers/forceps/whatever you use, it is time to eat. Personally, I feel that there is no need to use a snake hook to get a ball python, corn snake, or other non-venomous species. I'm not trying to put down those who do, but it just seems like it would be easier to work with your ball or corn to not recognize your hand as food. Just my 2 cents.

    Just curious but how many snakes, and what types do you have?
    1.3 lovely normals 1.1 Piebald 0.1 red tail boa (Pandora) 1.0 sinaloan milk snake and one nasty corn snake! 2.3.1 Cresties 0.0.1 chahoua 0.0.1 leachianus
    1.1 Ferrets (Snoball & Panda)
