Wow, what a little cutie. Too bad that face comes with a consequence for getting too close, lol.

Tame that sucker down!! A mean blood sucks! It's a such a shame you can't handle them cuz they're so mean and fiesty and will jump at you and scare you pretty bad.

Actually he's a different snake when we wear gloves. doesn't bite, doesn't do anything actually. and when you have him out he's fine as long as you don't rub his head.

Lisa,

Since its small, an easy way to tame it is to pick it up with one hand wearing a glove. then with your other hand, gently place it under its back half of its body (the key is to place it under, not grasp it) as they can definately tell the difference between gloves and bare hands. B4 u know it, it will be used to the feeling of your skin.
Just let it do what it wants in your hands.
after a few short handling sessions like this, try picking him up from behind without a glove, but be confident, do it fairly quickly, or it will tag u...lol
i always like to handle small nippy bloods, between my thumbs and pointer fingers. I have had great success just taking it easy and slow with my WC bangkas.
Now i can just reach in and grab em up.
Goodluck!
