...........That's real good advice
I suppose most hot keepers would say you should look into getting an enclosure set-up that has you in control when you open the enclosure (eg: no front opening tanks). Hides with lockable doors on them so you can lock the hide off from the rest of the enclosure while you perform cleaning duties without having to remove the snake.
I don't keep elapids sadly, although I think those days are numbered, but I know quite a few who do. I'm sure you'll get much more info off the ones who deal with hots on a daily basis. But these tips are certainly some of the ones I'd seriously consider. Most of the red bellies and tigers friends keep are p-u-s-s-ycat (God, does everything have to revolve around sex on this site????
) tame anyway ..... but then again...there is that complacency word stepping in! Caution will be your greatest tool!
