There is not need to do that to start with, not with kingsnakes. Remember this is a kingsnake forum and we are actually talking about a baby kingsnake, arn't we.

So why do all this messing about and fiddle farting, when there is absolutely no need to.

The reality is, you do not have to do that with any size kingsnake, they simple learn your not food by the time they are adults. Also, if they do go after you, its most likely because your not feeding enough in the first place.

The reality is, doing that, gives YOU something to do, when you do not understand what is going on. Its much better that you learn how to set up a snake properly, then there is no need to feed them in a shoebox.

Besides, kings have tiny short blunt teeth. Hmmmmmmmm nothing like my reptiles and I hand feed them. Cheers
