Picked this little demon up today. To be honest he isn't that bad, he only bit me once taking him out of a pillowcase. Anyways here he is meet King Joffreyhttp://i.imgur.com/YcOi62Y.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/nXIfzQN.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/e5gVw10.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/NE8qdYm.jpg

Nice pick up there, BC!

My juvenile Southern WLP didn't try anything when I collected him in NC sometime back, or even when I picked him up after a bad shed just the other day; but, when I was moving my hand around the front of his cold hide, where I put him back after the examination, he did pop my right hand in a mock strike.

But then again, he's only as thick as one of my larger fingers (I have small hands) so there's not a lot he could've done... :rolleyes:

Thanks everyone! He's got quite the attitude, my girlfriend wanted to see him when she got home from work. I slid open his tub and out he came, lunged out and nearly got me right in the face. The reach on him really caught me off guard lol

That's what you get for sticking him in that small jail cell instead of a penthouse enclosure!

It's a quarantine enclosure, I don't want this turning into a debate on whether tubs/racks are good or not ;)

I assumed quarantine, that's a given...

So you're just quick to pass judgments then? Just wanted to share some pics of a new animal, I wasn't asking for critiques on my husbandry.

Beautiful White Lip! Makes me miss mine. Their speed is insane. I found using a hook to pick him up help with keeping him at a safe from my face.

Fortunately I learned about their speed with a close call. I've heard they're notorious face biters. I've got a hook, maybe I need a mask of some sort? Lol Thanks for the compliments

Some lighthearted suggestions:

Though the helmet/mask didn't help much with John Hurt (Kane)...
