Hi:



I explored using the Midwest Python hook and found it difficult and awkward to use. Mainly because of it's weight without the Gabby and for the reason mentioned by Larry. I think they're a lot more robust than people give them credit for. She can do some jaw dropping stuff when she wants to...they are like tanks in my opinion.



I use the two hook method (Midwest standards)but I admit she is becoming to heavy even for that. She just weighed in at 12 lbs and working on 5 feet. I just may have to move out of the room and give her ownership rather than trying to wrestle her in and out. Good thing she is a sweetie and likes to get out on parole while I clean her cage.
