Hi all,

the guy living with me has aquired himself a lovely little spotted python, about 40-50cm in lengh and about 25-30mm in diameter at his thickest part...he got it from a guy who he was doing a removal for and asked the owner what he planned on doing with the snake, the owner said he bought it for his son and his son doesn't like it anymore and said that my mate could have it (mate has his reptile licence luckly enough).

we left him be for 3 days and didn't feed him, then on the 4th day we gave him a pinkie...he loved it and then demended more lol so he was lucky and got another one, we then left him for another day and fed him last night (1 pinkie).

now we tried handleing him later that night we gave him the 2 pinkies, but he was very very aggressive so we left him for an hour or so then proceded to try again...but no luck.

tried again last night and still no luck...he's a very firery one lol..any suggestions or tricks of the trade to get this little one to be able to handle?

cheers all
