No more bites!

petie11o5 Sep 06, 2008 01:02 AM

So after working with my baby BRB I have already noticed a huge change in her temperment. She is so much more calm and easy to handle. And that's only after a week or two of handling her.I feel alot more comfortable holding her. She has bitten me a few times but not nearly as much as before. Thanks for all the help from you guys!

Glad to hear it's working out better. Handling is really what get's them used to being handled - go figure Sometimes it's tough to take the hits necessary to get them to stop giving them.

They learn to stop biting you, about the same time you finally conquer your nerves about letting them!

Haha Thats exactly what I thought. As soon as she started to calm down I didn't react at all. It is funny how things work.

You are starting to understand what the snake is saying to you. Listen carefully.
