Wallace is going to shed any day now. He's been mellow during this period.
I've decided to step up the game with him. I just ordered the 5 foot version of this: https://www.aestoney.com/product/poly-gaboona-hook/
I'll likely order some kevlar/leather gloves for those "special times" we may share together in the future. And he'll get a huge, plastic Rubbermaid bin to hang out in when I do my cleaning.
I think in hindsight I should have already had these items even though my current hook is high quality.
It was really the first eye opening experience with any of my snakes here. I've been bitten before and haven't thought much about it.
This non-bite experience however would not have been forgettable had he actually gotten a hold of me.
Time to re-evaluate and put new procedures in place.
