Me and matty had a lesson in probing and popping snakes today by my local rep shop owner (ryan),i must admit it was very good and not a 5 min thing,ryan went through what size probes for what sized snakes and must of tried it on about six differant sized snakes from a small milk to small royal and a medium retic.Ryan is a top bloke for teaching us tis in his own time and asked for nothing,funny watching matty struggling with a feisty brb seeing it had just tagged ryan. |

It was easy with the relaxed snakes, the wriggly ones made it quite hard.
Edit - Its in Bristol Remmy. |

| it'SEEMS easy enough but it is a good idea to be shown by a pro,i done a few poppings and matty done some probing,i tried probbing before inthere,but was just a quick go.The royal was so easy to pop but he said that corn can be a bit more stubborn to pop and really need probing |

| Probing is more accurate, but again needs to be done properly, both for the health of the snake and to get a correct result. |
