Geee.... I never thought of using a "Thong" to handle my snakes, I'll have to try that...LOL

Eyelashes are one of the two or three I would consider if just starting off. Cryptelytrops albolabris or Popeia popeiorum would be other possibilities.

Aboreals can reach out & "touch" you from a greater distance than most people are used to...never underestimate them.

All of these ride the hook very well, just make sure the hook in a long one.

Good Luck,

Al

CB04 Cryptelytrops purpelomaculatus
