    Thank You!

    Guys, I have a little bitty 251 gram Cinny that I use gloves for when I handle him. He's a very skittish little guy, and repeatedly bites me anytime I have to do tub maintenance. Of the five BP's we currently own, he's the only one who thinks he's a Black Mamba.

    I use the gloves not because I think he'll hurt me with his 251 grams of fury, but simply because after 10 hits while trying to change his water, it just gets old after a while.
    You're welcome, Slim.

    As for me, I keep gloves in the top drawer of my supplies desk. I use them when I consider it prudent to do so regardless of the species or size of the snake I'm dealing with. I've been bit and it's no biggie with the snakes I own but on occasion the gloves serve a good purpose and get the job done more efficiently for me than a bare hand approach.

    Considering the strike range I've seen with our boas here, Jeff, I'd be respecting that "pose" of hers LOL
