Tips to re-tame a neglected kingsnake

[Herefishyfishy]

I would keep some vinegar-soaked cotton balls handy in case he does go for a finger again.

Oooh thanks! At the very least now I know I can get him off me easily, and I'll try the citrus as well. I appreciate the tips.

Make sure you aren't holding other animals before holding your kingsnake.

I don't have any other pets and I usually wash my hands before holding him, but especially if I've been handling his food to thaw it.

There is a chance that he could just be one of those snakes that is a jack off.

I'm really hoping that isn't the case as he was great to handle before all this, but it's definitely a possibility.
