Bill's response was outstanding and spelled the process out very well. Although all of his information was important, one of the points he made that can not be emphasized enough is that you should never hold a boid behind the head for any reason. This is especially true for the larger species, even when young. With the strength they have in their neck muscles, if they struggle (and they usually will), it is extremely easy for them to cause permanent damage to their neck vertebrae when held in this manner. Not to mention the fact that you will produce an extremely head shy, and nervous snake very quickly. I have worked with large constrictors for over 30 years and have never had to resort to restraining one in this manner. [ Hide Replies ]
