I disagree. My babie pastel I let stay in his hide for 2 weeks I puled him out *by removing his hide* and he didnt flinch. That being said every snake is diffrent so just wtahc what you're doing when you go to get him out and dont make very fast moves so he gets scared....
Well its easy to just lift up a hide but she said her snake was in a TUNNEL hide.So thats why i mentioned it being differant
