She fell 3 times :[
So tonight i was handling my 8 month old baby girl (ball)
and i put her around my neck and she'd be chill for a bit,
and then completely fall off! :[
i felt like i kept hurting her.
but im confused because when i got her at the expo in LA, there were snake owners with their snakes dangling from all over them while they were walking on tight ropes (sarcastic) but you get the picture. I asked one girl "how do you know ur snakes not guna fall off your neck" and she relplied "oh she knows"...? i was like wow really. do i need to like train her? lol.
:/
any help would be greatly appreciated,
Andrew

Re: She fell 3 times :[
You need to not put her around your neck, keep her in hand, and if she falls once... then she should not fall twice... and falling 3 times... 
If she fell once that is enough proof that she cannot hold on well enough to be around your neck.
Your snake can die from a fall, you really need to take her handling sessions more seriously.

Re: She fell 3 times :[
how far did she fall?
what did she land on?
how hard did she land?
if the answers to these even sounds bad at all to you it would be smart to have het checked out.
how big is she? if she is too small then she wont have anyway of holding on to you if you want her around your neck wait till she is big nuff to wrap around your neck first.

My snakes have fallen from time to time. Typically they move on to my belly and then suicide off my chair ~_~ I make sure it doesn't happen again.

Re: She fell 3 times :[
Youg snake tend to roam alot, they aren't content with just hanging out with you, this comes as they get older and get used to being handled, but you don't want to overdue it and stress her out, cause that may lead to other problems
