Just a quick question for interest really.

How many of you use Snake Hooks, and what make and style do you use?

Thanks

I use them with a few of the snakes..great to use with larger species such as retics and burms...I believe there is a thread somewhere on hook training..

i use it just to lift my boa. cause am just wee!!!!

it saves me putting my hand in and she knows when the hook lifts her she is coming out and not getting fed. the 2nd she clears the door i get her with my hand though.

i have 2.
one small telescopic for the small stuff if they are being a pain.
and a larger one for the larger Biod's if they really need it, which is rare
but it's always to hand.
