I have two baby Macklott's - a male and a female. Been handling them pretty regularly, and, honestly, the bites are not even as bad as a young adult kingsnake... At least the Macklot lets go!! But, this handling session with the female, with shadows heat and movement all around, and with her at 18-inch length (still adorably buggy-eyed), she made a couple of half-hearted attempts at grabbing *something* before settling down. to just chill out in my hand... Happy daddy... Yup; I'm hooked...

Hi,
congrats! Macklot's are great snakes and mine make a lot of fun!
BUT:
"... At least the Macklot lets go!! "
Well you should have told this guy. It took me about 10 minutes to get this one off of my hand. No alcohol worked, nothing but at last a very cold shower 
Cheers,
Wulf
