|
I am looking after an albino something or other burmese for a mate and it is a complete pyschopatchic nutjob, the things close to 6ft and is total agression, strikes at anything moving, cracked one of the glass doors striking at it and nearly had my hand off when I was changing its water bowl last night.
Is there anything I can do to calm it down, its only with me for another 5-6 days but I am sh1t scared of the thing if I am honest and don't fancy ending up being smooshed by it.

How do I change the water or clean it out etc?
Do you have any tips mate?
Can you sex it from looking aswell or is it a need to look at its vents or something or probe?
Is everything ok that you can see, its at about 50-60% humidity.

Quickly!..lol..no just try and move him up to one end of the viv with a hook.
Unless he has defecated now chances are he may not do so within the week in which time its then your mates problem.Or have you got it long term?
Males generally have larger spurs.
Humidity is fine I just keep mine on newspaper and have a large water bowl in there.Just spray when he is coming up to shed.

He is back in about 5 - 6 days so he will be coming with his dad to pick it up
Spurs that are visible without holding its tail up to look? 
Snakeguy, I will give you £50 to come and stick a pillowcase over its head
