Advise Please

Ive found myself in a situation that ive not had before and am not sure what to do.Ive just finished feeding the young coastals and have managed to get two of them back into the enclosure that they share with Souix my water python (they are in click clacks) and Souix has decided she doesnt like me today and I cant get the door open to put the last bub in the enclosure I dont have any where else to put the bub with the correct light ect and I know if i try and put another click clack in Souix is gunna tag me good Can anyone offer me some advise what Im worried about is Souis getting out shes lunging a good 2 foot to get me.
Cheers Odie

use a blanket to cover your arm drap it over your arm and put it in that way or use it to push souix back gently if it comes out

the hatchie will be fine outside of the cage. Youa re more than warm enough up there Odie and he can do without light for a little while. If he is in a tub just leave him on th ekitchen bench for a while.

keep a pair of gardening gloves handy, the babe will need some warmth to aid in the digestion of food.

I agree here , if ur still a bit worried about bein bitten get a hook, or u could try a decoy and when the WP bites onto the decoy quickly put the click clack back in (decoy = some preferably bigger then wat he/she is fed making sure they spit it out and not attempt to eat it... )
