I dug out an old quality street tin.
With some holes punched in it, would this be a good feeding tin and bath tub if i cleaned it out?
Probably use it once a week (friday is our feeding day  )
and bath when i need. Although not sure if it will be big enough for a tub.
Advice would be gratefull [:d] |

Cant see why not.
Just dont fill it with water if you've put air holes near the bottom

| Because I have two very wriggly corns when trying to feed and handle the vicious one I dont wanna have to watch my avery so holes in the quality street tin lid (fatty!) and close it once storm has fed then can focus on taming balboa at the only time safe for me - with his gob full of mouse! |

I wouldnt really bother him while he's eating. May be safe for you but it will stress him out and probably make him worse tbh.

Hmm, I guess but if he's sat in my hand eating a mouse or while I got my hands on him when he's in the choccy tin he'd get a little bit used to being handled.
He's still for sale. |

| I wouldnt bother Hillzi, as soon as hes finished you would have to put him back anyway. Feed him, leave him 2 days, then start handling him for 2 or 3 minuites at a time each day. |

Don't handle a freshly fed snake, you're asking for a regurge which will do your snake no good at all.
PS. Its Anery (short for Anerythristic). |

Since the quality street tin is an improvised RUB for the moment once storm is munching away in the tin;
How i hand feed my snakes is let them curl round my finger to stop them doing an.. er slither and let them feed on a piece of kitchen roll on my old rug so they can chomp happily and im happy they wont wriggle, i wait till they yawn and let them slither back into the viv and leave them for a few days.
first handle of my anery since thursday night feed.
But it does make matters worse, i saw a perfect opportunity for a handle earlier, caught him leaving the cave and gently placed my hand about 1/3 way down from his head and he hissed like... a really annoyed snake!
This is why he is up for sale, even though he's small my family don't want a 5 ft corn if the time came who'd snap at anything. |

Have you tried handling him with gloves on?
Just hold him over a tub or something though incase he gets out of your grip |
