Hi peeps.
Just thought Id shared this with you all.
Today my gf got tagged (her fault). Ive started with the three Corn snakes, warming up there mice (one I had to use the hairdryer on one mouse) so my room were fulled with the smell of food.
Me and my gf got this routine, she takes out the snakes while I get the food ready with the tongs (As we feed all our snakes outside the vivs/rubs).
Ok finished with the Corns, its the Ball`s turn. I saw our(actually my gf`s) Albino - Peyote is more active then usual. I told Tanya "ok we`ll feed her first". As I turned my back to get the rat fluff ready, all I heard were "Ooo no *@~#$" I turned around and saw she got tagged. I just knew what happened, because its her snake, she first wanted to play and say hi to Peyote. That's the last thing you do when your Ball knows it feeding time.

Time line 20:38 - Got tagged
20:46 - Still no sign of letting go, the more Tanya moves her hand the more Peyote constricts.
20:55 - I though I should try and get the Ball to release, as I lifted Tanya`s hand she released.

Naughty Peyote! That looks just a bit painful!

If she has any trouble with it, try Hibiscrub; you can get it from Boots' - it clears up inflammation and soreness in no time. (I actually had some prescribed for a cat's eczema - he was a wildish cat and when he bit me I used the stuff too.)

Hope your girlfriend's ok and that she forgives Peyote - I expect she'll be fine the next time she handles her.

Thanks B.A.T.S. we do have Hibiscrub at home (Tanya is a specialist dental nurse and they use it in the surgery. She always bring some home) and we use it alot. Tanya will or never get mad at Peyote, Peyote gets more attention then me LOL.

Something which works better than water because water sometimes doesn't work.
Is a tiny dab of listerine mouth wash.
Just pour a little bit next to snakeies head so it dribbled into the mouth, works 100% of the time guaranteed.
