I'd have to disagree with you there. Constant handling of an already stressed and highly defensive snake is, I believe, more likely to freak it out. Regular handling sessions that are short, start and end well and follow a very consistent routine would be what I'd recommend. Also feeding in the enclosure has never been proven to cause a snake to strike at it's owner either in a defensive or feeding strike. Strikes can happen of course but feeding in the enclosure does not particularily up the chances of them. I feed 40 snakes from 3 different species in their enclosures. If your theory held true than I'd be awfully chewed up by now.Originally Posted by aff19802
