Re: The benefits of handling + other stuff

lol
Nice.
I just notice the direct benefit of handling: The snake is much calmer and views you as part of their environment instead of a threat, and more as a food giver. *As opposed to a food source. :P*
I'm working on getting all my snakes to eat while in my hands, so far Fatty, the one who's been handled the most, is growing like a weed and has no problems eating while in or out of shed.
