Feeding tongs / Snake hook recommendations?

[jclaiborne]

Thanks for the input guys! I was putting together an order for amazon and saw 12" hemostats that were pretty cheap, so I went ahead and ordered them. If they seem flimsy or if I need something longer, I can try the reptile show in Atlanta this summer.

jclaiborne- That is a cool thread you linked to. I am not handy at all, so I will probably look for a pre-made one with a handle, as you suggested. If I already had a shop with tools and clamps though, I'd be all over the converted golf club hook.

There are some companies that sell the golf club hooks as well. They just are around 35 bucks. You can check out midwest tongs (http://tongs.com/p_snakehooks.aspx), LLL Reptile (http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...sbandry-tools/), Reptile Basics has the golf club style (http://www.reptilebasics.com/husbandry-stainless) or even sometimes ebay has them...
