Re: Help for new snake owners!
Also make sure that your hands are clean when you pick him up, as odors of other snakes or food could bring on a bite. My Cali King almost got me a few weeks ago when I made the mistake of handling him after picking steamed crabs for dinner. Oops, never knew he liked seafood...
If your wife wigs out, tell her that when they're that little, getting bitten is like being attacked by velcro.
