About one and a half years ago i bought home a 4-5 foot male indian python home from holland.

He too was a very huffy/puffy so and so !

He was also a very insecure animal, he would hold on (coiled around my hand) for dear life!

I to used the hook at first to get him out of the viv, and with time and patience he came round in as little time as 3 month's.

I never bothered with gloves and long sleeved jacket's etc. As i'm a ferm believer in that animal's will pick up on YOUR natural body reaction (if your up-tight, then so is the animal).

I had a friend that took on a 4 foot Bosc monitor and was scared s*~@less of it and every time something needed to the viv or with the animal he would call me up to go round and get hold of the lizard. But once he was out and felt secure in my arm's he was sweet as pie.

Just be-calm, be-patient and the animal will come round in time.
