Thanks for your responce, i dont think i will let her handle it alone after it gets over 7'-8'. What do you sudjest for alchohol? everclear? Jack D? Im not even of drinking age . . .

I have also wondered about hook training. I assumed that a snake is less likely to get agressive (feeding responce or out of fear) if it is out of its tank/cage. So i thought about starting to train it with a hook when it gets to a certain size (say 6-8') to decrease the chance of just sticking your hand in, scaring the animal and/or invoking a feeding responce and thne it grabs your and.

i might be sounding paranoid but i am by no means terrified of these snakes i just allways like to be prepared for ANY issues. Be it medical/housing/dangers

thanks for your responce
