Enclosure entry

[GarterNovice]

Personally I use a top opening enclosure because I wanted a water tight tank. But in retrospect my snakes get much jumpier when I view them from the top as opposed to the side of the tank. Thinking my next purchase for a tank will be either an exo-terra (so as to keep the water feature) or build one of my own with a side door and built in lamps.

I don't have any problems to speak of. For the most part they wait their turn

Honestly, At times it's quick hands that keep them from getting out. Sometimes they do take turns and behave. I have at times pulled them out after they take their food. I put them in a small container until they're done.
I have some pretty calm snakes and they seem to know the routine, unless pinkies are on the menu. Then they bum-rush me and take all the food.

I've always assumed my snakes were freaking out thinking I was a bird or something. My male absolutely goes ballistic, takes a few minutes to get him calmed down. The female calms down as soon as I have her all the way out.
