How about some real advice instead of "grow a set of ba**s" I bet most of you who say this were scared shi*tless at one time or another.....Anyway here is how I do it with my adult male..if he is under his hide I lift if off, and first touch him before I ever attempt to pick him up, that way he knows there is no food coming, then just pick him up somewhere close to the middle. I have absolutely no fear that he will bite me, but if he does then he does. Also make sure you wash your hands thoroughly if you have been handling rats or mice before handling your snake. Other than that enjoy your snake, soon you will do it without even thinking about it
