I remember you mentioning that about subminiatus. I kept it in mind on the few occasions I held tigrinus behind the head.......read that focused on it almost exclusively, but never had a problem.

Gentle handling does work wonders, as I have also learned the stupid way (little yearlings), but I'm quite cautious when dealing with even slightly largish individuals, and the cautious measures piss them off!
