ps. I tried using gloves but they keep falling off the snake.
I use a 2 iron to get out a couple of my problem snakes as I don't own a hook.Should I use a 5 iron on the shorter ones?[/quote]
I would use a putter, So you can put the somewhere or if your feeding a sandwedge might go down well.

While they are unlikely to cause serious injury to healthy adults, some people may be sensitive to the venom and in case of a bite first aid should be applied and medical assistance sought."
So maybe he was just a wussy....but it made him sick. |

It didn't hurt as much as the whack on the arm by the cranky 7' coastal and nor did it bleed all over farkurnell's table cloth but by gumbo; it did hurt.

Though I dont think white lips are found in Sydney as a rule.

| | | Angelrose,
I was just wondering how the breeder you got your bredli off is able to 'selectively breed' snappy animals. Don't know much about bredli's, but is snappiness not a normal characteristic with these animals? Is it possible to breed "personality' traits?  :
Be grateful if someone could clear this one up for me.
Regards Rina |

I don't think it is possible to breed for personality myself. |
