I now finally trust her . good luck and don't be afraid to try this if your snake stays aggressive
Did you learn that from jkobalyka? He has a youtube video of that procedure.
Try and ball up a 4' defensive granite yellow anaconda in your palm and then try and put your other hand on top of him? .....................NOOOOOTTTTT! lol
I had to do another method for myself. But, for bp's then yea the OP could try that method u mentioned.
