Hi everyone I did as you said and took Tango out of his hide to handle him, and he was fine with it. I handled him yesterday and twice today! I managed to get some good pictures too, i will upload them soon.

It is always strange when you first start to handle them but it soon becomes strange not to.

Stumpy has put it so well! It can make you feel very nervous and even scared to begin with (worrying about all the things that could go wrong), and it feels really weird with them sliding through your hands....but soon you become so used to it that it is natural and 2nd nature....and you begin to get withdrawal symptoms if you have to go a day without handling !

Am so glad your handling of Tango was such a success Oliver. Sounds like you have a laid back snake and you were obviously giving off the right vibes for him to handle so well .

Cant wait to see the pics of him (if I ever get the chance to go through the photo section....there are just so many posts to read !!)
