Posted by: hammer at Wed Sep 14 19:13:59 2005 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by hammer ] I was told Carmichael may be of some help, but I'll take advice from anyone… I have three king cobras, all in the 12 foot range. Two are in front loaders, the other in a top and side loader. With the top, I can easily control him, coaxing him into the box so I can get in for maintenance. The other two, however, are a bit more challenging. They don’t go into the box voluntarily, so if I want them safely secured, I open the front end and use a hook to persuade them into the box, which is not easy. Although not the safest way of getting them in the box, that’s not my main concern. It takes a long time to get them to go in, and all the while, I know it stresses them out. I don’t like to use tongs, because with a 12 foot body, it can exert a lot of torque, so if I try to secure him, I have to use a lot of pressure, which I don’t want to do cause it may hurt him.
