[Sid]

Guess I've been really lucky. I've only had one out of the many that I kept that was honestly mean. And I do feel the term for her was mean. Had her for a couple of years and every time the enclosure was opened her mouth went wide open and here she came.

All the others after just some short term handling have been OK. With skiddish one I lay my hand on them flat for a moment, then slip my thumb beneath them and have no problems.
