Ever get one of those moments where you go "how didn't I think of that?"
Yeah, I just got one of those Thank you, that will make life easier.

Taking the snake out of the tank was the issue at hand. I'd prefer to use gloves than a hook. I'm starting to question if I'll ever be able to go in glove free with this guy. (Or girl. It. Thing.) I take off the gloves when I sit down with the snake. But I'd rather the snake get used to the gloves than get tagged every time.
