| I usually wait until the mouse stops moving down then tilt the tub and let them make their own way back that way I don't have to pick them up. But if you have to pick them up dont put pressure on where the lump is, its one of the rare times I'll pick them up my grabbing them closer to the tail and just put my hand underneath them for support. |

| I usually leave mine for a good half hour so they are out of feeding mode, if i go into the feeding rub any sooner my fingers are confused with food. Just pick them up very carefully and put straight back home. |

| I wait until snakey starts wandering round the tub, then just pick her up and pop her in the viv. Try to avoid grabbing her near the tummy bulge and she'll be fine. No need to *****foot about; corn snakes are far more resilient than people give them credit for! |

i wait until they are moving back around and they have their jaws back in line and then
i shimmy lightning back in, because he will eat your fingers if you try and pick him up.
midnight is more than happy to be picked up and put back in her viv
